  The transition from 4G to 5G technology has sparked numerous questions about the compatibility of existing cell towers with the latest generation. Here's a concise breakdown of whether existing 4G cell towers will require hardware changes, including new antennae, to support 5G: Upgrading Existing Towers for 5G Compatibility  Yes, existing 4G cell towers can be upgraded to support 5G technology. Technicians have the capability to modify or replace 4G antennas to make them compatible with 5G networks.  Increased Number of 5G Towers While existing 4G towers can be upgraded, the deployment of 5G networks often involves the installation of more 5G towers per area. This is due to the smaller size of 5G towers and the need for increased coverage. Differences Between 5G and 4G Towers The differences between 5G and 4G towers are significant. 5G towers are smaller and require more units per square kilometer compared to their 4G counterparts. The hardware of 5G towers is designed...
