Berizon, which is particular about the world's first, launches 5G for commercial use in "House Limited"

In some areas of Houston, Indianapolis, Los Angeles, and Sacramento, wireless services for next -generation communication technology "5G" will be available from October 1.

The new program of Verizon, called "5G Home", is the world's first commercial 5G service.The average speed of the network is about 300 megabit per second (Mbps), and the peak speed is about 1 gigabit per second (Gbps).It is comparable to 100-500 Mbps, which is the communication speed of Verizon Fios, a FTTH service provided by the company.Existing "Verizon Wireless" customers can receive services for $ 50 per month, and customers other than Verizon wireless can receive services for $ 70 per month.Service contracts will be accepted from September 13.

However, this service is not mobile 5G.At this time, services are limited to user houses, and the fiber network does not exceed the speed of communication services.In addition, the service area is for some of the cities listed at the beginning (here can be checked here if the service is subject to the service).

真の次世代モバイル通信を展開する初の通信事業者となるべく順調に駒を進めているのは、2018年末までにサービスを開始するAT&Tとなる模様だ。Tモバイル(T-Mobile)とスプリント(Sprint)のサービスは2019年に登場し、同時にスプリントとLGエレクトロニクスが開発した5G対応携帯もお披露目となりそうだ。こういった事情であるから、今のところはベライゾンがリードしているものの、スポットライトを浴びていられるのは束の間かもしれない。
