How does 5G benefit telemedicine?

<span data-sheets-root="1" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"5G is a sought-after technology in telemedicine because it has two properties that support remote surgery. The first is low latency, which shortens the communication time between a surgeon in one part of the world, and a patient in another. The second capability is network slicing, which allows network operators to customize networks for a single purpose or user, reducing the potential for interference and lag.

How does 5G rollout positively impact students' education?

How does 5G rollout positively impact students’ education?

Broadband connectivity is a foundational component of a quality education and setting students up for success. Quality of education using 5G will deploy smart teaching modules, e-learning, and virtual classes. Those lacking internet access lack important access to schooling and educational content. The implications of these digital disadvantages have only been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Investing in 5G rollout is an investment into the education of students and tremendously expands the options and opportunities for the unconnected.
