You hear the term "broadband" a lot and it's getting harder and harder to really define it. It doesn't hurt that people use it as a throwaway term meaning "High Speed Internet."

It may not be readily apparent, but in 2024 5G mobile networks are celebrating five years of commercial availability, racking up over 1.5 billion users around the world. From their inception, they have been designed to bring continuous enhancements such as higher data throughputs, massively increased capacity and low latency. Added to these latter qualities have been network slicing and dedicated private networks, capabilities made possible only through standalone 5G (5G SA) infrastructures, writes Joe O’Halloran. https://lnkd.in/eNbjv_cU
