gsm
In the context of paper and textiles, this term functions as a technical specification. It is used primarily by designers, printers, and manufacturers to describe the thickness and weight of a material. A higher value indicates a heavier, more opaque material, while a lower value indicates a thinner, more translucent one.
When referring to telecommunications, the term is a technical acronym for a specific cellular standard. In modern usage, it is often used retrospectively or in technical comparisons to distinguish older 2G digital networks from newer 4G or 5G technologies.
