How can I invest in 5G?

Under ideal conditions, the 5G speed should in future reach up to 10 Gbit/s , the equivalent of a 20-fold increase. Just how fast 10 Gbit/s really is can be demonstrated by a simple example. A user takes around 13 minutes to download the content of a DVD (4.7 GB) over a DSL line with a bandwidth of 50 Mbit/s.

5G is designed to support a 100x increase in traffic capacity and network efficiency . 5G has lower latency than 4G. 5G has significantly lower latency to deliver more instantaneous, real-time access: a 10x decrease in end-to-end latency down to 1ms.

A quarter of the way into 2021 , T-Mobile now says its nationwide 5G network reaches 287 million people; of that total, 125 million people can enjoy faster Ultra Capacity 5G.

In May, the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) had allotted spectrum to Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel, and Vodafone Idea to conduct 5G trials in the 700 Mhz, 3.5 GHz, and 26 GHz bands across select cities for six months. It was to end in November 2021, but the DoT extended the trial period to May 2022 .
