With the introduction of the RUTX50 (mobile router) and the TRB500 (gateway) provides Teltonika Networks from now on solutions for it 5G network. In this article we discuss the prospects of 5G, the current possibilities and discuss the development of Teltonika 5G products.

The prospects of 5G

Traffic on current networks is growing annually by approximately 60% per year. This explosion of devices and traffic makes it increasingly difficult to guarantee a reliable internet connection for all connected devices.

Of 5G technology this problem can be solved because this network has a higher network speedfaster data throughput and larger capacity. With the growth of data-intensive technologies such as autonomous vehicles, drones, AI, IoT and robotics, the demand for reliable technology will further increase.

It is another important aspect of 5G power consumption. The new 5G will not consume more power than current network technologies. Thanks to a built-in stream processor, the network itself will perform more processing tasks. With a higher frequency range, power management schemes and data packet compression algorithm, it is expected that 5G and its supporting devices will even energy and current to spare compared to current networks.

The potential of 5G

By the high speed and very small delay everyone sees opportunities in 5G for new markets where ultra-fast data throughput is vital, such as critical infrastructure and autonomous vehicles. However, it is also wise to invest in 5G with a view to making solutions future-proof.

It is expected that this technology will become dominant in the coming years. The business community should not make the same mistake as with the transition from 3G to 4G. There was too much going on at the time relied on 3G for too long, after which complete installations had to be replaced within a short period for installations aimed at 4G. This cost a lot of money at the time.

Development of the RUTX50 AND TRB500

Based on this vision, Teltonika Networks started developing new 5G devices in 2020; the RUTX50 mobile router and the TRB500 gateway. During development, the chip shortage and the search for suitable antennas were the two biggest challenges. The antennas had to be small, powerful but also suitable.

The R&D teams had to think and plan four steps ahead to ensure that a lack of components would not impact production progress and ensure the planned release date was met.
