Introducing the pre-show DC5G 2018 Webinar
What is 5G Exactly? What Everyone Needs to Know About Next Generation Wireless Networks (of Networks!)
More than a few people in the telecommunications industry say that the transition to 5G wireless is “more than just another G,” or that it’s not just “another increase in speed.” And there are more than a few different definitions and interpretations of how 5G will impact the way we use data and connect to mobile networks. On top of that, there’s the long list of 5G terminology – cRAN, Network Edge, Slicing, mmWave, vRAN, Gnb – standards that aren’t quite…standard, and policies and regulations that are still up in the air. At the end of the day, people are still searching for the answer to the basic question – What exactly is 5G?
During this webinar, we seek to answer that very question. We’ll start at the beginning and break down the 5G wireless basics. Attendees of this webinar will walk away with a better understanding of the various acronyms specific to 5G, how 5G will differ from 3G, 4G and 4G LTE, the relationship between applications and 5G connectivity, and more.
What you’ll learn:
- The need-to-know terms, acronyms, standards, and definitions specific to 5G.
- How 5G is different from 3G, 4G and 4G LTE
- How 5G networks are built (the various hardware and physical elements that make up the network infrastructure)
- How 5G networks function (how data moves in a network of networks)
- The relationship between applications (AI/machine learning, automation, Virtual Reality, etc.) and 5G connectivity
- A clear outline of 5G standards and critical policy issues.
- An overview of where the global telecommunications industry currently stands in regard to 5G implementation
- A realistic future timeline for 5G market rollout and adoption.
