Berg Insight: In late 2020 5G will reach IoT technology

The Internet of Things analyst form reported that the 5G network connectivity would debut in the IoT industry and market in late 2020. According to Berg Insight, the very first of the 5G cellular Internet of Things module will be available to the developers of the connected device by the end of 2020. Furthermore, this will enable the early adopters in creating the first of the IoT devices based on the IoT standard.

Berg Insight also said that previously when the new standards of connectivity were introduced in the IoT industry, they were not an instant. Moreover, this is the only reason which suggests that just like its predecessors, the 5G will also not become an instant hit.

Berg Insight also predicts that by the year 2023, 5G network connectivity will also account for a minimum of three percent of overall installation in the cellular variants of the IoT devices. The analytics firm said that 5G connectivity has a long way to go before it becomes a mainstream connectivity option for the mobile versions of IoT, according to Tobias Ryberg.

The Principal Analyst of Berg Insight said that the 4G cellular connectivity got a mediocre response from IoT industry when it first came into being. There is no denying that the first version of 5G will be treated better. 5G will improve network performance along with data capacity.

It is important to note that NB-IoT just started to appear in the commercial products as during the inception of Narrowband that wasn't an immediate successor. When the IoT industry will go through an exponential growth with the data traffic and connections only then will the fifth generation of the mobile network become a to-go option?

The report that Tobias Ryberg has written identifies that homeland security as the primary area where the cellular 5G IoT will make a significant impact in the first half of the 2020s.
