Macrocell vs. Small Cell vs. Femtocell: 5G Base Stations Compared

3 different types of 5G enterprise tech: searchnetworking.techtarget.c...
5G promises a world of ultra-high-speed connectivity. While we may see a decreased reliance on macrocells -- or those sky-high cell towers along highways or in rural areas -- the truth is that 5G relies on a combination of base stations, including macrocells, small cells, and femtocells. The differences between the three are apparent in size, coverage, and cost -- but, small cells in particular are key to providing the high millimeter wave frequencies 5G promises.

Oh this video is so much underrated. Your explanation is crystal clear. I was struggling to understand this concept although I read a lot about them and you made me understand it in less than 4 minutes. Thank you so much.

[@EyeonTech]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tekdhant3731]

Thank you so much for making the video in this much detail!!! It really helped me to understand the difference!!!

[@EyeonTech]

Glad it was helpful!

Hi, where did you get the information on the installation cost from? Could you provide the source please?

[@James_Knott]

While 5G can use mmWave, it doesn't have to. Any band that's used for 2, 3 or 4G can also be used for 5G. The carrier I'm with has bands from 600 MHz to 3.5 GHz, but not mmWave.

[@alexioforte397]

This is spot on information. Can small cells use the same frequency as the active denial system?

[@SkylineFinesse]

I am no expert, but ADS uses 95ghz while 5g is 28-39ghz.

[@SkylineFinesse]

Edit: another source states 24-47ghz

[@SkylineFinesse]

Edit: yet another source states 24-54ghz

What is the difference between frequency and carrier.

It is so obvious to transition all the new Wi-Fi routers to 5G Femtocell. Everyone would win. No more passwords, internet everywhere, and possibly more affordable home internet due to discount for using your infra.

[@alonzorvca]

I second the cost of Small cells.

Voice was low and unclear concept so disliked

[@EyeonTech]

So sorry to hear that! You can always turn on closed captions from the settings menu, or slow the playback speed, to make it easier to follow along.

[@kamikazekid94]

What? Explain how so? It was very clear information. I’m confused and voice was very clear
