5G to unlock the real potential of connected PCs
The advent of 5G is giving the “Always Connected” part of the AOAC
concept a transformational nudge to realize its full potential. The unique
features of 5G, such as near-fiber data transfer rates, low latency
operations, and the ability to connect a larger number of devices as
compared to older technologies are enabling it to achieve what 4G could
not deliver.
As in the case of 4G -enabled PCs, the enterprise segment is expected to
be the target market for 5G-based AOAC PCs as well. However, the sizeable
difference is the scope for use within enterprises. The 4G PCs were targeted
only for the remote workforces, as the enterprises are also exploring 5G as
a mainstream option for connectivity, it is opening up a new segment for
AOAC PC ecosystem to disrupt.

ADOPTION BARRIERS FOR ENTERPRISE-
CENTRIC 5G-ENABLED PCs
Need for larger capital investments
5G operates in different frequency ranges and integrating 5G components within PCs is
not similar to the established 4G incorporation. This gives rise to various complexities in
PC operation. Although Lenovo, XX, and XX have announced their 5G-enabled PCs, the
technology is at a nascent stage. A significant amount of research will still be required to
mitigate the real-time emerging challenges in PCs enabled with 5G as well as for integrating
5G components within the PCs supporting xx.
AOAC PCs with stringent performance requirements have already stimulated the overall PC
bill of materials (BOM). Adding cellular capability to PCs further regulates the BOM to higher
levels. PC vendors will subsequently pass on the higher BOM costs to customers impacting
the adoption rate.
