Base Network in Telecommunications (Telecom Networks)
In telecommunications, the "base network" typically refers to the core infrastructure that supports mobile and internet communications. Here's a more detailed breakdown:

Cellular Networks (Base Stations): A base station in cellular networks (like 4G, 5G) is part of the physical infrastructure that connects mobile devices (phones, tablets, etc.) to the wider telecommunications network. These base stations serve as the point of communication between user devices and the network's backbone.

Core Network (Backbone): This is the central part of the telecom network that interconnects various sub-networks and handles the majority of data transmission. The core network includes high-speed data cables, routers, switches, and servers that carry traffic from one location to another. In the case of 5G, for instance, the base network will handle higher-speed data and ultra-low latency.
