Let’s Network: AT&T Is Helping GE Research Bring Ultra-Fast 5G To Its Lab In A Push To Transform Industry

Will Palmer
December 13, 2021

Over the past two decades, four generations of mobile networks have changed how we live, shop and talk to each other. But the next-generation wireless networks, 5G, which can achieve data transmission speeds 10 to 100 times faster than we’re currently used to, could quickly change the status quo again. 5G has big implications for everything from gaming and shopping to advancing the promise of smart buildings, appliances and cars. One industry it could alter dramatically is healthcare.
