Facebook and network startup Common deliver 5G broadband in California
Facebook's open-source Terragraph WiFi technology will power 5G home broadband in Alameda, California. Unveiled in 2016, the 60GHz millimeter-wave wireless tech is designed to bypass cost-prohibitive fiber-optic lines by blasting the internet through buildings along a network of short-distance cell towers. The Terragraph device itself can be attached to existing infrastructure, like a street lamp or apartment building.
