What is 5G technology?

5G technology is the evolution of the mobile network to the 5th generation.

5G allows for higher speeds, shorter response times (latency) and a more robust network, capable of delivering quality Internet and Voice, even in areas and situations with more access, providing a better user experience with several devices connected simultaneously, wherever we are.


What are the main benefits of 5G technology?

5G technology makes it possible to take greater advantage of mobile internet services and paves the way to a new world of innovations and opportunities.

A wide range of industries and sectors can be redefined through the massification of Internet of Things, from retail to education, transportation and entertainment, and much more.

How fast will I surf on 5G?

Pay Monthly plans have maximum speed as a basic feature (excluding 10Mbps tariffs and the Social Internet Tariff). 

Pay as You Go Plans with a base plafond greater than or equal to 10GB browse at maximum speed. The rest of the Pay as You Go Plans surf at speeds of up to 40Mbps. For more information on internet access speeds, please check the conditions of use.

What are the services and applications of 5G?

  • Increased mobile bandwidth: not only does it make mobile equipment better, but it is also capable of creating immersive experiences, such as virtual and augmented reality, with higher and more uniform data transmission speeds, lower latency and a lower cost per bit than current mobile networks.
  • Greater robustness in communications that are considered critical: it enables new services that can transform industries that depend on the remote control of devices, vehicles and medical procedures.
  • Massification of the Internet of Things: connects a large number of sensors embedded in practically all equipment and devices, through the ability to reduce data transmission rates, energy and mobility to provide extremely robust and low-cost solutions.
