Ericsson hits 5Gbps in 5G labs demo |
July 01, 2014
Ericsson says it has succeeded in sending data at 5 gigabits per second over a wireless testbed for future “5G” mobile networks.That’s about 50 times faster than today’s speediest LTE networks, which operate at around 100 megabits per second and are deployed in Asia and Europe. It’s also considerably faster than home Internet connections, including those delivered by fiber optic cable.But don’t get too excited. The first 5G networks aren’t expected to be deployed for around six years, likely beginning with a demonstration network in Tokyo to coincide with the 2020 Olympic summer games.The Ericsson demo took place at the company’s research and development lab in Kista, Sweden, under controlled conditions.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
