Verizon has announced that it will bring its 5G Ultra Wideband service to additional cities this year. The company has entered into agreements with satellite providers for early clearance of C-band spectrum the company acquired in 2021, making it possible to deploy the 5G Ultra Wideband service to more customers this year.
With this early clearance of the second phase of C-band spectrum - originally scheduled to be cleared in December 2023, Verizon expects to deploy 5G Ultra Wideband service this year on at least 60 MHz of spectrum and up to 100 MHz of spectrum in some areas to at least 30 additional major markets areas including the large population centers Atlanta, GA; Baltimore, MD; Washington, DC and Denver, CO.
Back in March, Verizon announced that it plans to deploy 5G Ultra Wideband to at least 175 million people by the end of 2022, a year ahead of schedule.
“This early spectrum clearance is just the latest development that allows us to bring 5G Ultra Wideband to our customers faster,” said Kyle Malady, EVP and President of Global Network and Technology. “We’ve been able to accelerate deployment because we’re driving more efficiency and coverage from the C-band spectrum, leveraging opportunities like the one we are announcing today, and leveraging our already in place infrastructure. In my career with Verizon, I have never experienced a network deployment move so quickly.”
Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband offers download speeds up to one gigabit per second and the capacity to support data-heavy actions from multiple devices at one time. You can learn more about the service at the link below...
