It is a fact that the average data usage per customer has grown in the past years. This is driven by explosive growth in video traffic as mobile is increasingly becoming the source of media and entertainment, as well as the massive growth in always-connected cloud computing and experiences.

3G, 4G, LTE, 4.5G, and 5G all refer to different forms of mobile data connectivity that offer increasing levels of data speed, network capacity and functionality.

Is fibre internet and 5G the same thing?

While the two are different technologies, they support each other. For instance, fibre internet is a wired connection with speeds up to 100 times faster than traditional broadband, which means that a fibre connection can easily handle all of your online needs.

5G  is the latest evolution of cellular networks that power mobile devices and the successor to 4G LTE. Compared to 4G LTE, 5G has much faster download and upload speeds—up to 20 times faster than LTE at its theoretical maximum.
