5G is coming, will 4G routing be changed?
As early as the 3G era, there was already such a device. Unlike the traditional router, his uplink was to use the carrier's wireless network, and the router needed to insert sim. The 4G router is a device that is inserted into the operator's 4G sim card and accesses the operator's LTE network.
These 4G routers may have three kinds of interfaces, one is a USB interface, and the computer can be connected through a USB interface. Such a router is relatively small, and is also called a data network card.
4G routers are easy to carry, and because 4G routers do not need to have many functions other than mobile phones, 4G routers are faster than mobile phones.
The 5G router, which is the 5G CPE, can receive the signal of the 5G base station, and can release a wifi hotspot, which is similar to the original 4G router.
However, whether an individual needs to replace a 5G router is still not recommended for the time being.
For a long time, the operator's 5G network coverage will not be very good, and the main use scenario of 5G CPE is indoors, the relative experience will be worse. In addition to the dedicated 5G pilot community, it is difficult to use this 5G CPE to provide ultra-high speed Internet access.
For the time being, the price of this 5G CPE is still relatively expensive. The price of Huawei's 5G CPE tested and tested is one million yuan and one hundred thousand yuan. It is said that the price of 5G CPE in Chengdu pilot community is 60,000 yuan. It is still relatively expensive now.
5G CPE's current equipment is relatively large in size, and it is not very convenient to carry. It is suitable for some places that can be fixed, that is, as a substitute for fixed-line broadband, and now the popularity of fiber-optic households in China is already very high. This equipment is not needed anymore.
All in all, for a long time, 5G coverage will not be very extensive, and the price of 5G CPE is relatively expensive. Personal replacement is not recommended for the time being, but if the operator can provide it for free, it is good to try it. select.
