I-Qualcomm isanda kumemezela imodemu yayo entsha ye-5G emcimbini obuseSan Diego. Umkhiqizi waseMelika, ongomunye wezimbangi ezimbalwa zeHuawei ekwakhiweni kobuchwepheshe be5G, wethula imodemu yayo entsha yeX60 okungaba yiyo ezofakwa yi-iPhone 12 elandelayo, okulindeleke ukuthi kube yi-smartphones yokuqala yakwa-Apple ukuba nalobu buchwepheshe obusha.
Kulindeleke ukuthi ngemuva kwehlobo i-Apple izokwethula lonke uhla lwayo lwe-iPhone 12, olungafaka amamodeli afinyelela kwamane ahlukene ngomklamo omusha, ongaphezulu wesikwele. Amahemuhemu athi enye yamanoveli ayo amakhulu kuzoba ukufaka ukuhambisana kwe5G kuzo zonke, kusetshenziswa imodemu yeQualcomm, ngokubikezela le X60 entsha. Ngokusho kwamahemuhemu, I-Apple kuzofanele idizayine i-antenna yayo ukufanisa ukwakheka kwe-iPhone, kepha izoqhubeka nokuthembela kumamodemu weQualcomm ize ikwazi ukuzakhela eyayo., into abelokhu esebenza kuyo selokhu athola isigaba semodemu ye-Intel. Kungaleso sizathu-ke ukuthi impi yokwahlulela lezi zinkampani zombili eziyiphethe yaphela ngesivumelwano phakathi kwalaba bobabili, ngoba bayadingana.
Le modem yeQualcomm, njengoba ibikiwe ngumenzi, isebenzisa ubuchwepheshe be-5nm futhi isekela isivinini sokulanda esifinyelela ku-7Gbps futhi ilayishe isivinini se-3Gbps. Iphinde yagqamisa ukuthi izoba yimodemu yokuqala ukungasekeli kuphela ibhendi ye-mmWave kodwa yonke i-sub-6Ghz spectrum, kubandakanya ne-4G band. Ngaphandle kwazo zonke lezi zibalo, iqiniso elibuhlungu kuzoba ukuthi kuzothatha iminyaka embalwa ukuthi ubuchwepheshe be-5G bufinyelele iningi lethu., ngakho-ke cishe ngeke sikwazi ukusizakala ngalobu buchwepheshe kuze kube ngemuva kokuthenga i-iPhone yethu entsha. Futhi ukuthi, njengoba nje izinkampani ziphikelela ukusitshela ngenye indlela, isithonjana se-5G kubha yesimo se-iPhone kuzothatha isikhathi ukubonakala.
