If you haven’t done so already, then now is the time to switch to 5G. In recent news we discussed about the 3G Shutdown and the impact it will have on businesses as well as the numerous benefits.
Even more recently, Optus switched on 900Mhz low band spectrum and as a result they are extending their 5G footprint by 20%. This just adds to the evidence that 5G is the way of the future and that businesses which have not made the switch yet, should do so.
What’s the 900MhZ spectrum?
The 900 MHz spectrum is known as low band. Its main characteristic is that it carries mobile signals further than higher bands, resulting in fewer base stations needed to service a broad area. It is critical to providing wide signal coverage for 4G and 5G technologies.
Optus have already activated 1000 sites on the 900MhZ spectrum and expect to roll out more across the country. As a result, this will ensure better connectivity and reliability for 5G users.
VoIP and 5G
With the rollout of 900MhZ spectrum across the country and the evident switch to 5G with the shutdown of 3G, businesses can further benefit from VoIP apps. With better connectivity and network reliability you can take office calls on the go and work remotely more efficiently and reliably than before.
You can also collaborate with colleagues and customers from your mobile device, via SMS, chat, website live chat or even social media. All from the same VoIP app.
3CX VoIP Apps are available for Android, iOS, Mac and Windows enabling users to turn any device into a fully functioning communications tool. And now with the broader rollout of 5G there’s nothing holding you back from utilising these apps to their full capacity and enjoy massive cost savings and productivity boost.
