Right but they arent going to see in your house with 60ghz if the signal is emitted from outside of it. Penetration in those frequencies is basically nothing cant penetrate a piece of tissue paper. To really see in they would need a transmitter and receiver inside the house with you they may be able to locate the receiver outside if its very close range and they find a decent window or something to catch the signals through but they would need to be nearby like 30-50 yards.
5g easily penetrates your walls. Your phone can do it at low power to communicate with the towers.
I'm thinking, as an engineer, you want the low resolution massive net of 5g to see everything going on and when you need higher resolution you dive into the 60 ghz devices at the location for finer grain resolution. That's probably what this buildout is for.
5g cant penetrate your walls. They have various modes of 5g. Extended range 5g lowers the frequency to 24ghz with a corresponding drop in bandwidth to gain better penetration and range out to about a mile or two. 60ghz 5g high speed which is what they are talking about here has max range of about 1000 feet and has a requirement of direct line of sight with the receiver. 24ghz has been fairly standard for point to point wifi for a while. At one point i worked for a local government and they had two high power >100w 24ghz point to point wifi towers around 300' tall that were about 15-20 miles apart to link to remote infrastructure this was in 2009.
5g does penetrate walls.
