Key Terms

5g, fiber-optic
2 terms
5g technical
"Purchase an eligible 5G phone and activate a new smartphone line"
5G is the fifth generation of wireless technology that provides faster internet connections, lower latency, and greater capacity than previous networks. It enables quicker downloads, smoother streaming, and more reliable connections for devices. For investors, 5G represents a significant upgrade in technology infrastructure that can drive growth in related industries such as smartphones, smart cities, and the Internet of Things.
fiber-optic technical
"Switch your home internet connection to our 100% fiber-optic Fios"
Fiber-optic describes cables and systems that send information as pulses of light through very thin strands of glass or plastic, rather than as electrical signals through metal wires. For investors it matters because fiber-optic networks support much higher speeds, longer distances and lower delay—like replacing a slow dirt road with a high-speed highway—so companies that build, own or use fiber can gain cost advantages, enable new services and generate steadier cash flows.
