To make things “smart” and improve overall efficiency, we connect IoT devices through a network to the cloud (and each other). Thus, anything "smart" requires connectivity, both wired and wireless, at least in most cases. The 5G networks of the future will bring sophisticated connectivity to these edge IoT devices with higher speeds, more machine-to-machine connections and very low latencies – enabling a new generation of applications and use cases that we haven’t yet thought of.
