What equipment is used for 5G?

5G infrastructure refers to the network of macro- and small-cell base stations with edge computing capabilities that are required for the functionality of the fifth generation technology standard for cellular networks.

The 5G next-generation base transceiver station or gNodeB (gNB) connects subscriber user equipment (UE) devices to the mobile network. Many of the gNB throughput improvements come from multiple input and multiple output (MIMO) antenna systems that improve cellular connection reliability and quality.
