Is the private 5G network advertised by Amazon a kind of?
Put a sim card in that phone and use our 5^th Gen mobile gears. This
way you can use your private phone numbers in your private system and
send emoji, texts, pictures and even use your phone as a phone to call
other people in that private 5G network.
Is this new thing just about having a private 5 Ghz wifi or it’s about
using phones in 5^th Gen mobile communications through Amazon gears?
5G cellular, not 5GHz wi-fi.
Oddly, they are billing it as an augmentation to wi-fi, even though I
believe in dense cities where fibre is rife, wi-fi will be a more
feasible prospect, especially 802.11ax.
However, given how much cellular can scale, Amazon's "5G Cellular in a
Box" solution may just be the thing the tips the ratios between both
wi-fi and 5G being feasible in concentrated deployments, simultaneously.
