5G hardware

5G will have greater bandwidth , meaning it can handle many more connected devices than previous networks. That means no more spotty service when you’re in a crowded area. And it will enable even more connected devices like smart toothbrushes and self-driving cars.

In general, you can connect up to 32 devices to 5GHz WiFi simultaneously, but this also depends on your router. Some routers have support for over 250 devices; others only support up to 10. Your Internet speed also affects how many devices can be used practically on the 5GHz band.

Connection density is the ability to support the successful delivery of a message of a certain size within a certain time , even in space-constrained locations like a football stadium. 5G is expected to support up to 1 million connected devices per . 38 square miles, compared to around 2,000 connected devices per .2 Kas 2017

1.7 Connection density. 5G requires that a massive IoT system can serve up to 1,000,000 connections per square kilometer for a traffic model where each device is triggered to send a 32-byte uplink report every second hour [8].
