XGen Network (XGN), part of the 5G Broadcast Collective (5GBC), will exhibit the world’s first demonstration of ancillary data delivery to a road sign using 5G Broadcast at IBC2024.

The development marks a new era in 5G Broadcast where the rapid delivery of critical information to digital infrastructure becomes a reality, particularly when cell service goes down. The implications are profound, offering a transformative shift in how we think about emergency communication. The ability to broadcast time-sensitive emergency alerts directly to digital signage is the difference between chaos and safety, potentially saving countless lives.
