4G / 5G

What is 4G/5G and how does it work?

4G

The fourth generation of mobile connectivity allows for faster data transfer than its predecessor giving a far smoother experience for applications requiring web access, gaming services, video conferencing or latency-sensitive user data traffic. Main 4G drivers nowadays deliver on average speeds which are x3 faster than those of 3G and reduce latency to below 100ms, resulting in a land based Internet experience when on-board. These benefits make 4G technology the perfect solution to the hyper-converged connectivity offerings required by vessels, ensuring they benefit from the best of each technology.

5G

The fifth generation will certainly have a big technological impact. 5G innovation promises to relay on higher-bandwidths and lower-latencies which will bring a wide range of advantages to emerging industrial, end-user and M2M applications. Although the first 5G deployments are taking place today and high speeds can clearly help a shore-connected vessel to better serve its guests on-board, the roll-out timeline and limited coverage areas will make it a challenge for 5G to impact maritime telecommunications in the short-term.
