In four weeks (November 4th) the auction of the frequency bands of the 5G Network for Brazil should take place. After successive delays, the federal government’s expectation is that by July of next year the technology will be present in the 26 capitals of the state plus Brasília. The forecast is that the auction will move almost R$ 50 billion, with R$ 10.6 billion in grant payments and the rest in counterparts, such as investments in the 5G itself and in other communication solutions.
Advancing to the new network will be inevitable to a new economic level. Speed doesn’t just mean crash-free Netflix. It means quality remote learning. Basically, 5G will allow connections at speeds much higher than 4G. But no one should be fooled that the Brazilian 5G will be like everyone else’s. Comprehensiveness has never been our forte. No speed. In the world of 4G, the distance of connection quality in countries is so intense that there are world rankings updated monthly. In the most recent one, from August 2021, done by the Speed Test Global Index we are doing very poorly and below the global average in Mobile Band. With an average download speed of 33.4 Mbps (the world average is 56.7 Mbps), Brazil is in 75th place. In Fixed Band, a little better: 108.8 Mbps in Brazil against 110.2 Mbps in the global average, which places us among the 50 fastest. Check out the rankings:
