Most cellular “5G frequencies” (higher frequencies) cannot even penetrate a piece of glass. 95% of cellular 5G frequencies are up to 100x worse at penetrating walls, glass, and buildings .
Read moreWhy is 5G so short range?
The 5G standard uses millimeter waves, which are a lot shorter than the wavelengths 4G uses . The shorter wavelength means 5G can carry a lot of data much faster than 4G, but it also means a much shorter range.
Read moreDoes 5G use line of sight?
Though the high frequencies of 5G require a direct line-of-sight , “fixed wireless” will allow for cellular coverage within buildings and homes, without the use of cables or lines. Fixed wireless antennas are placed on top of homes and buildings to communicate with nearby small cells or macrocell towers.16 Ağu 2021
