Agenda

During this session, we’ll explore the health implicatinos of 5G. How seriously are we taking, and should we take, the possible health risks? What are some potential telemedicine implications of 5G?

During this session, we’ll talk about the national security implications of 5G. Are trade wars looming? What’s the deal with Huawei? Join us to find out what’s fact and what’s fiction when it comes to global 5G.

The future of DoD’s 5G ecosystem will be shaped by global competition. Verizon is a key player. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the company invested heavily in 5G -- to accelerate deployment, improve nationwide service, launch a dynamic spectrum-sharing capability, build on a framework of Zero Trust, and more. It’s become one of the largest infrastructure projects in the United States. In this session, Verizon’s Cornelius Brown will detail those efforts and offer best practices for Department of Defense leaders who want to go from PowerPoints to use cases that tap the potential of 5G technology.

During this session, we’ll dive into the nuts and bolts of 5G technology. We’ll investigate what’s new and different from 4G, current 5G experiments, and the practical uses of 5G. How should the U.S. be thinking about 5G from a technology point of view? Join us to find out.

The advent of 5G entails a variety of new requirements for wireless communication like faster connections, high user density, and resilient networks that need to be in place before now meets next. In this informative and fast-paced session, CommScope Director of Smart Spaces Morné Erasmus will further examine the “5G is Magic” perspective. He’ll offer real-world analysis of the drivers for 5G, explain how it’s best used inside buildings & bases, and demonstrate why unlicensed access is growing in importance.
