5G networks are still a ways out from deployment, but the technology will dramatically boost the capability of mobile networks by providing 1Gbps of bandwidth and lower latency, and by taking advantage of a wider spectrum range.
Besides mobility and wireless, 5G will likely have a significant impact on industrial networks, IoT, and cloud computing.
On today’s sponsored Priority Queue, we talk with Intel about 5G technology, how it works, business use cases, and its potential impact on the enterprise. We also discuss Intel’s efforts to bring 5G-enabled products to market. Our guest is Caroline Chan, Director, Wireless Access Strategy and Technology, at Intel’s Network Platform Group.
This podcast was recorded live at the Intel Developer Forum 2016 in San Francisco.

The biggest factor is unlimited vs non unlimited plans. Unlimited = I’m interested in 5g, otherwise nope. Even for small things like sensors I don’t want to have to worry about overages in any way.
I have more questions then thoughts. Does 5G need a operating system. What do I mean right now automation and orchestration are just enough to handle 5G. Does is require a OS to handle it. And then an apps can request services.
