Advertisements are discussing it, technologists and carriers are excited about it, but the adoption of 5G technology is still in its earlier stages, with much of the growth still to come in the next few years benefitting telecom companies and their customers alike. But the providers that will benefit the most are those who optimise the capabilities of the existing telecom infrastructure so that they don’t overspend on network buildouts that could take a few years or longer to provide a positive return on investment.

Die 5G-Technologie begeistert Technologen und Betreiber, dennoch befindet sich ihre Einführung in einem frühen Stadium. Das Wachstum und das Potenzial von 5G werden erst in den kommenden Jahren den Telekommunikationsunternehmen sowie deren Kunden zugutekommen. Anbieter, die heute schon ihre Telekommunikations-Infrastruktur optimieren, müssen später nicht mehr viel in den Netzwerkausbau investieren, um einen schnellen ROI zu erhalten.

Quectel Wireless Solutions, a global supplier of IoT modules and antennas, has announced that its RM500 5G modem and its RMU500 USB modem developer kit have been used by Microsoft Azure as a reference case for 5G connectivity for its Azure Percept artificial intelligence (AI) kit.

Technology can have a negative reputation because people tend to fear what they don’t understand and due to privacy concerns. However, not all technology is bad. During this season of giving thanks, I would like to remind everyone that technology can be a powerful tool for making the world a smarter and better place for everyone. IoT is an excellent example because it touches many industries that impact the daily lives of our global society.

Engineering software is effective as a visual tool to help drive product sales, demonstrations and content creation for marketers.

Quectel Wireless, a Chinese supplier of IoT modules and antennas, has launched its LTE-A category-six EM060K-GL module which has Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) capability for private mobile networks.

The arrival of technologies including Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced data analytics has widened the appeal and usage of digital twins. People and processes can now have digital twins that enable accelerated development, smoother operations and continuous innovation.

The devil is in the details when getting technology to perform at optimal levels. An excellent example is properly integrating antennas to connected devices. Poor siting of an antenna in a device and/or integration issues between the antenna and other components can cause wireless IoT device performance to suffer or fail completely. Antenna selection and integration must be given greater attention with users considering specifying pre-qualified components from the same supplier, for both module and antenna, to streamline a successful design and accelerate time to market. Early decisions need to be made regarding the relative merits of embedded or external selection and then attention can turn to optimizing the antenna integration.
