The 5G network is expected to be available in selected areas within Malaysia this year and is to bring more value for businesses – especially the manufacturing industry as it allows IoT devices and automation to work and communicate data at a much faster pace with lower latency issues. Additionally, the public is excited for this availability as it will increase broadband speed and reduce latency providing an overall better day-to-day user experience.

In embracing IR4.0, 5G is set to provide improvements in speed, latency, and capacity meaning better competitiveness through improvements to robotics, manufacturing controls, and warehouse automation. Which also includes increasing flexibility, lowering lead times, and cutting reconfiguration costs up.
