Advantages of 5G technology and their impact on businesses (Part 2)

An important change when businesses adopt 5G is the way they manage their internal networks. An organization is connected by many different devices (such as wifi transceivers, optical cables, copper wire, etc), many different forms (such as industrial communication (fieldbus), direct connection serial (ethernet), or wireless connection (wireless)).

All of the above factors contribute to the formation of an internal data network for the organization. Typically, devices in this network are equal and have equal access and sharing rights. The security limit is only set when an administrator deprives and authorizes certain devices. This makes it difficult to manage and inconvenience when sharing data. However, with 5G technology, the organization’s internal network will be classified into several small networks depending on the expertise from the beginning. Each class can be considered as a private network to cover a specific area. These networks are connected to each other through a control center, so the control and confidentiality of data is greatly improved.

Not only that, 5G also helps organizations access technology “cloud computing” more convenient. Enterprises using this technology will reduce the initial investment costs for infrastructure, while the costs such as machinery and human resources will be reduced to the lowest level. The high processing speed of 5G combined with the rapid scaling and shrinking “Data Cloud” will help businesses avoid wastefulness or resource shortages when deploying jobs, helping to improve quality of services provided in the cloud. In addition, applications deployed on the cloud platform are easy to repair and improve features, because they are not installed on a fixed computer.

Here are a few examples of how 5G can improve the way your business works:

• Make effective use of infrastructure to improve management capacity
• Improve predictive maintenance and minimize risks in the manufacturing process
• Harness the potential of Augmented Reality (AR) to improve quality control
• Detect hazards and monitor and maintain remotely
• Train, guide employees through virtual reality and augmented reality applications
• Monitor and manage supply chain sources

In the future, the impact of 5G will not only change production and logistics, but also play a significant role in commerce, media, culture – tourism and management. Because it can be said that the potential of 5G for each business is extremely large.
