Business Wire
What’s the news: T-Mobile has taken its 5G standalone (5G
SA) network to the next level, lighting up mid-band Ultra Capacity
spectrum on 5G SA nationwide.
Why it matters: 5G SA is the future of wireless
connectivity, immediately improving performance and paving the way
for groundbreaking applications that leverage super-fast speeds,
ultra-reliable low latency (real-time responsiveness), massive
connectivity and more.
Who it’s for: T-Mobile customers nationwide.
The leader in 5G stands alone. T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) today
announced it has taken the country’s only nationwide 5G standalone
(5G SA) network to the next level, lighting up Ultra Capacity 5G on
5G SA nationwide. The move immediately advances T-Mobile’s network
– unleashing faster speeds for customers across the country while
further reducing any lag in the network with lower latency,
improving applications like gaming that require near real-time
responsiveness. And it’s another massive step toward unleashing
groundbreaking new applications that will thrive on a pure 5G
network.
“5G is making a meaningful impact today – changing the way
people use their smartphones, bringing choice and competition to
home broadband, improving disaster response and so much more … but
we’re only scratching the surface on what 5G can do,” said Neville
Ray, President of Technology at T-Mobile. “Transformative 5G
networks are here, and T-Mobile is leading the charge with not just
the largest, fastest and most reliable 5G network, but the most
advanced as well. We’re driving the industry forward with 5G
standalone and delivering a level of performance for customers that
can’t be achieved otherwise.”
New Technology. New Capacity.
With the move to 5G SA on its Ultra Capacity network, T-Mobile
is opening up new possibilities for 5G carrier aggregation (NR CA)
– which means combining different layers of 5G spectrum together
for greater speed and capacity. This year the Un-carrier will begin
combining three channels of Ultra Capacity 5G, which in tests
produced peak speeds topping 3 Gbps (mind-blowingly fast).
Customers with the Samsung Galaxy S22 will be the first to leverage
this new capability in the coming weeks, and it will expand to
additional devices in the near future.
T-Mobile is the network leader, delivering a 5G network that is
larger, faster and more reliable than any other in the US. The
Un-carrier’s Extended Range 5G now covers 321 million people across
1.9 million square miles – more than AT&T and Verizon combined.
250 million people nationwide are covered by T-Mobile’s super-fast
Ultra Capacity 5G, and the Un-carrier plans to reach 300 million
people with Ultra Capacity next year.
