SK Telecom has decided to provide a 5G mobile router to Minghua Industrial Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of auto parts. The company has decided to introduce the 5G-AI machine vision technology, which will not only ensure the mobile data sharing function, but also the technology to check the quality of the product in the factory of the manufacturer.

Plans for mobile routers will also be launched. Like LTE routers, it does not rely on data capacity billing, but provides a set of dedicated line usage and solution charges.

SK Telecom said the "Comprehensive Plan for the Machine Vision Solution", to be released next month, is for smart factories that want a solution that combines artificial intelligence and 5G.

LG U + plans to launch a data-only router and a 5G portable Wi-Fi package in accordance with the 5G marketing schedule.

The LG U + 5G Router Service also addresses businesses. The company plans to launch 5G smartphones and related plans for the consumer market next March.

Before the introduction of the 5G smartphone, the company plans to use the 5G router to send radio waves and test the service in the B2B market.

KT, which is recovering the lost cables as a result of a fire in the communication area, plans to present the best 5G service based on differentiated technological know-how.

KT plans to hold an internal commemoration event at the Gwacheon Control Center on the first day of transmission. KT, which ruled that the recovery after a break in service was the first, will not announce the commercialization of 5G communication directly to the outside of the company.
