5G technology

  • What is 5G+?

    5G+ is the new generation of the 5G network, designed to operate completely independently of the 4G network. This technological evolution offers ultra-fast connections, advanced encryption and greater energy efficiency, contributing to a more sustainable future. 

    Thanks to 5G+, it will also be possible to provide a dedicated path for each need, ideal for critical applications such as the Internet of Things (IoT), automated industry and remote healthcare. It is a network prepared for the challenges of the future!

    Your plan is plan set up for 5G+. All you need is a compatible smartphone, a SIM card, and to be in an area with 5G+ coverage.

  • 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.

    The widespread adoption of the Internet of Things has the potential to transform a wide range of industries and sectors, from retail to education, transportation, and entertainment, and much more. 

  • In what situations do I feel the speed of 5G technology?

    We've all experienced that annoying pause in the middle of our favorite TV show or had the game freeze just as we're reaching the final part. With 5G technology, these problems disappear. With speeds that allow Large downloads in seconds, we have a generation of entertainment with no stops or delays.

  • 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.
