Read moreWhat is the frequency range of C-band in GHz?
C-band sits between 3.4 GHz and 4.2 GHz and is emerging as a prime resource for the capacity crunch without incurring high-cost investments that would otherwise be required to upgrade the infrastructure.
Read moreIs C-band 5G faster?
C-Band delivers fast speeds but with a wider reach than millimeter wave-based 5G, which is what Verizon and AT&T used for their initial super-fast coverage.
