T-Mobile USA reported a strong Q2, which the company attributed to growth of its subscriber base, outgrowing its direct competitors AT&T and Verizon.
AT&T has completed a call on its recently acquired C-band spectrum, a further sign of the intense competition between the US telcos as they push on with 5G rollout.
Verizon has achieved speeds of 4.3 Gbps in a lab trial that saw it aggregate C-band and mmWave spectrum.
Verizon has begun deploying RAN equipment from Ericsson and Samsung to enable it to use its recently-acquired C-band spectrum.
The news that US telecoms giant AT&T will use Nokia for a major part of its 5G rollout comes as the Finnish vendor tries to give investors hope.
AT&T will not match rival Verizon’s monster spend on the rollout of 5G infrastructure using its recently-acquired C-band spectrum.
The clock phase of the headline-hitting C-band spectrum auction in the US has closed with bidders pledging a staggering US$80.92 billion.
By the final round of bidding of the 3.7GHz spectrum this year, American operators have collectively committed $70 billion. The auction will resume after the new year.
Verizon topped the spending table in the FCC’s recently-concluded 3.5-GHz auction, splurging nearly $1.9 billion on 557 spectrum licences in 157 locations.
While it won’t be until the end of 2023 until Intelsat has completely shifted operations out of the valuable 3.7-4 GHz spectrum band, slow progress is at least progress.
The US telecoms regulator wants satellite companies to hand over 300 MHz of C-band spectrum, but the question of how compensation remains unresolved.
The German government has decided to make the entire 3.4-3.8 GHz band available for 5G use, which is a good idea.
