Last Wednesday, Verizon announced that it intends to launch their next
generation in wireless internet, 5G ‘wireless fiber’ pilot program, to some
degree in 2017.
Verizon will start testing connections at ranges of less than 500 yards for
high-usage locations.
With mobile data consumption at an all-time high,
social media, on-demand video streaming, SMART devices, and the technological
advances with ‘Internet of Everything’ (IoE),
current standards
would soon fall behind as the increase of connectivity demands more data, and
connection reliability.
