Big towers ruled the past.
But in 5G, small cells are taking the lead.
Sounds counterintuitive?
It makes perfect sense.
Here’s why small cells outperform traditional ones:
They reduce the path data needs to travel
They deliver faster, more stable data
They scale better across cities
They’re quicker to install
They use less power
That said—let’s be honest.
Small cells aren’t flawless.
Here are some common issues:
They cover limited areas
Setup costs can be steep
Too many in one spot cause interference
Still, the upside is hard to ignore.
More speed.
Less latency.
And better efficiency.
5G doesn’t need to be taller.
Just smarter.
Small cells prove that precision beats power.
