Difference between revisions of "T-Mobile US"

T-Mobile has deployed LTE on AWS (1700/2100 MHz, Band 4), PCS (1900MHz, Band 2), 700 MHz A block (Band 12), and US 600MHz "Digital Dividend" (Band 71). T-Mobile also has deployed LTE on the 850MHz cellular band (Band 5), but only in one single location: Horry County (including Myrtle Beach), South Carolina. AWS is T-Mobile's primary LTE band. It was used exclusively during T-Mobile's initial LTE deployment in 2013. PCS spectrum began deployment in 2014 as a cost-saving measure to allow rural 2G-only sites to be upgraded without requiring new antenna panels. Markets where T-Mobile holds limited AWS spectrum, such as Cincinnati, also use LTE on PCS spectrum. 700 MHz is in the early stages of deployment and will added to existing sites to improve building penetration and coverage area.
