2. 5G is ushering in a new era of connectivity, speed, and capabilities
never seen or experienced before. A natural successor of the 4G
network, the new, ultra-high-speed 5G network will have more than 3
billion users by 2025, accounting for roughly 50% of telecom and
internet users.
With such high quality, and high-speed internet, how will the industries
and markets get impacted? We will have an in-depth analysis of the 5G
impact on the overall digital transformation landscape, but before that,
let’s have an overview of 5G technology, and some astonishing
numbers related to its usage, currently.
Fasten your seatbelts, because the possibilities are actually endless!

3. What is 5G?
5G is the 5th Generation Technology for broadband cellular networks,
whose deployment was initiated in 2019 in some countries, as a planned
replacement of the existing 4G network.
The technology behind 5G is very much similar to 4G or 3G, wherein the
service area is divided into small geographical areas called cells, and all 5G
wireless devices in a particular cell are connected to the Internet via radio
waves through a local antenna in the cell.

4. 5G usage is expanding
The Global Mobile Suppliers Association has identified 224 telecom operators across 88 countries, that have
either demonstrated 5G capabilities, or currently testing 5G networks, or already deployed 5G networks in their
particular areas (2019), and these numbers are expanding at a rapid pace.
As of 2022, more than 700 million telecom and internet users are already experiencing 5G network. Some
estimates peg this number at close to 1 billion!
In fact, the adaptability and usage of 5G have been the fastest, compared to other networks.
Recently, the Indian Govt officially launched 5G services across a few cities, as leading telecom firms have
promised to cover the entire India with 5G network by the end of 2023.
Here is a list of all countries, where 5G is either available or currently being tested.

5. The three biggest advantages of 5G over 4G and older networks are Speed, bandwidth, and low latency.
5G has been demonstrated to provide upto 20 gigabits per second (Gbit/s), which is changing everything
we know about data transfer and data usage.
With higher bandwidth & lower latency, 5G can connect with more devices at the same time, which is
giving a big push towards the Internet of Things (IoT) & Machine Learning ecosystem, as more and more
applications are being developed on the 5G platform.
Overall, the 5G network is enabling more and more users to connect with one another, consume more
content at high speed, and connect millions of devices at the same time, transferring tons of data instantly.
And this opens up a new world of possibilities for digitally transforming industries and sectors.
Biggest advantages of 5G network

6. Impact of 5G on digital transformation for
industries & sectors
Technically, 5G brings in 10X more speed with 50X lower latency, which introduces a never-seen-
before creation, adaptability, and usage of Internet of Things applications, with highly advanced
Machine-to-Machine connectivity and deployment of Artificial Intelligence across different industries
and sectors.
This impact of 5G is transforming and revolutionizing Digital Transformation, as we know it.
And no industry or sector will be left unimpacted by this massive transformation.
Here are a few practical and live use cases, which will show you how 5G is impacting different
industries, and unleashing massive Digital Transformation:

7. Surveillance cameras
With 5G, surveillance cameras are increasingly becoming more intelligent, connected, and sharper. Backed with high-
speed 5G having low latency, Surveillance Cameras can now recognize faces in an optimized way, co-relate them with
millions of other images, find out the connections and predict their actions via highly advanced AI algorithms.
Content consumption, especially video & games
Most probably, the biggest shift that we are witnessing due to 5G is content consumption behavior.
With ultra-high speed 5G in every home, there will be a steep increase in content consumption across homes, offices,
public places, and entertainment hubs, offering a host of options to choose from.
Consumption of videos will skyrocket, as the Internet will gradually replace TV as the go-to medium for content.

8. Healthcare services
With 5G supporting High-resolution video consultations, assistance robots, and smart wearables, the healthcare sector is
witnessing an unprecedented digital transformation.
5G is making doctors location-independent, as they are able to perform more surgeries and consultations via highly
advanced video conferencing and virtual simulators, thereby saving more lives, and impacting society in a positive manner.
Robotics & automation with edge cloud
With 5G, Cloud computing is evolving into a powerful Edge Cloud, and this changes everything, especially in the robotics
and automation industry.
With Edge Cloud, the processing and controlling of robots can happen outside their structure, and this means more
control, flexibility, and capabilities. They can be seamlessly programmed and then re-programmed to serve diversified
needs and requirements.

9. Replacement of LAN
As per some studies, 5G will gradually replace the decades-old technology of LAN for providing high-
speed connectivity for organizations within their premises, and this is a game-changer moment. This
will happen because 5G speed is almost the same as LAN speed, in fact, 5G frequency will be higher
than LAN.
Once LAN is weeded out and replaced with 5G, client-server architecture will witness a paradigm
shift in usage and applications, especially Cloud computing. No longer will organizations be required
to purchase and maintain expensive servers, because 5G tech will use Cloud for data transfers and
storage.
New, exciting, and useful applications based on Cloud will see the light of day, which can
revolutionize the entire IT sector.

10. Replacement of LAN
Be it agriculture, manufacturing, consumer electronics, telecommunication, healthcare,
automobiles, corporate communications, industrial automation, and more, 5G is becoming the
catalyst that is unleashing an unprecedented Digital Transformation and empowering more users to
experience the future.
We at TechAhead are determined to leverage the power of 5G for offering better, faster, and sharper
services to our clients, and offer them cutting-edge Digital Transformation solutions that will make
