T-Mobile also announced today that it’s launching new capabilities with 5G carrier aggregation (NR CA), combining two channels of 2.5 GHz mid-band spectrum for greater speed and capacity.
Read moreWhat is considered mid-band?
Spectrum in the 1 GHz – 6 GHz range is mid-band spectrum and it is considered ideal for 5G because it can carry plenty of data while also traveling significant distances. The GSMA describes spectrum in the 3.3 GHz to 3.8 GHz range as particularly appealing.
Read moreWhat is mid-band spectrum?
It’s the mid-band spectrum, the middle layer of the cake, that brings together the best of both worlds: long range for broad coverage, with high capacity and speed and the ability to penetrate walls . This is why mid-band has been called the “sweet spot” spectrum for 5G.

Millimeter-wave: High speed, but with a downside The first flavor is known as millimeter-wave (aka mmWave). This technology has been deployed over the course of the last few years by Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile , though it’s most notable for being the 5G network Verizon has previously touted across the country.
Read moreHow many mm is 5G?
Verizon 5G utilizes millimeter wave technology. These millimeter waves exist on an extremely high frequency and are considered millimeter waves because the wavelengths range between 1 and 10 mm . 5G may also utilize ultra-high frequency radio waves between 300 MHz and 3 GHz.
