5G-enabled technology will soon replace 4G-enabled technology for mobile communication worldwide. Which of the following are potential advantages of 5G-enabled mobile technology?

1.Greater interconnectivity for the Internet of Things

2.Greater download speeds

3.Less bandwidth

4.Greater end-to-end delay

A1 & 2 only ✓ Correct

B2 & 3 only

C3 & 4 only

D1 & 4 only

Correct answer: (A) 1 & 2 only

Explanation

5G offers stronger IoT interconnectivity and much greater download speeds than 4G.

Statement 1 5G supports far more connected devices for the Internet of Things.

Statement 2 5G delivers markedly higher download speeds than 4G.

Statement 3 claiming less bandwidth is wrong, as 5G provides more bandwidth.

Statement 4 claiming greater end-to-end delay is wrong, since 5G cuts latency.

Lower latency is a defining benefit of fifth-generation mobile networks.
