C-band holders in the U.S. are in line to receive $9.7 billion in total for clearing 300 MHz of the band for terrestrial 5G wireless operators by Dec. 5, 2023 , by moving customers to the upper 200 MHz of the band. Intelsat and SES are set to get $4.9 billion and $3.97 billion, respectively, under the FCC’s plan.

The Ku band frequency range is 11.7 – 12.2 GHz (or 11700 to 12220 MHz) Notice how these frequencies are higher than the C band frequency range . Because of the higher frequencies, Ku band waves have shorter wavelengths. Shorter wavelengths mean that you need a smaller dish to receive these frequencies.

Through the C-band auction, Verizon was able in one fell swoop to more than double its holdings in the lower bands of spectrum – at 3.7 GHz, C-band is considered mid-band but lower than the high-band mmWave.
