Sub-6GHz 5G is essential for blanket coverage and bandwidth, while mmWave offers higher speeds over shorter distances . As such, mmWave deployments are limited to short distances, such as a few streets, and areas that benefit most from extreme high bandwidth, such as stadiums and city centers.

Sub-6GHz 5G is essential for blanket coverage and bandwidth, while mmWave offers higher speeds over shorter distances . As such, mmWave deployments are limited to short distances, such as a few streets, and areas that benefit most from extreme high bandwidth, such as stadiums and city centers.
Read moreIs Verizon ultra wideband mmWave?
Verizon is still rolling out millimeter wave (mmWave) in select areas, which it pitches as “5G Ultra Wideband” to consumers . The latest cities to get this mobility service are Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; Athens, Georgia; Orlando, Florida; and Fremont, California.
Read moreWhat frequency is ultra wideband?
UWB radios can use frequencies from 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz, a band more than 7 GHz wide. Each radio channel can have a bandwidth of more than 500 MHz depending upon its center frequency. Due to such a large signal bandwidth, FCC has put severe broadcast power restrictions.
