5G figures today as one of the newest technologies that promises to further accelerate theinformation flow on the network. Its application is not limited to mobile telephony, but has also beenadding value in the most diverse segments such as industry, medicine, agribusiness, logistics and evenin war environments. Its most diverse possibilities also bring with it some prerequisites for installation,as well as development needs in the area of information security to guarantee the sustainability of itsoperation. Applied to industrial environments, 5G is able to bring benefits in the safety of people andequipment, optimization of workflows, prediction of failures in production chains, among other possibilities. This article sets out to understand, through a systematic mapping of the literature, the facts thatpreceded its creation, the minimum requirements for its operation, as well as the impacts and demandson the industrial environment with its application in production chains in general.
