Globe has 2 UMTS blocks in use. Globe uses 900MHz (E-GSM) and 2100 MHz (IMT) spectrum for 3G. In some areas, Globe has migrated from 3G to 4G LTE to allow more bandwidth, such as LTE Band 8.

==4G (LTE)==
==4G (LTE)==
Globe has 7 LTE blocks in use. Globe has deployed LTE on 700 MHz (APT B28) 15 MHz/20MHz, 900 MHz (E-GSM B8) 10 MHz, 1800 MHz (DCS B3) 10 MHz, 2100 MHz (IMT B1) 10 MHz, 2300 MHz (WCS B40) 15 MHz and 2500 MHz (BRS/EBS B41) 10 MHz/20 MHz. DCS is Globe's primary LTE band. It was used exclusively during Globe's initial LTE deployment in 2012. Globe also owns 20 MHz of 2600MHz (IMT-E B38) used for additional capacity via MFBI (or Multiple Frequency Band Indicator).
