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 wavelengths do 5G use?
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.
Read moreWhich 5G band is the fastest?
Millimeter wave is the “best” 5G. If you download a 4GB file, like a movie, you might be able to do that in about 5 minutes and 19 seconds on today’s fastest 4G LTE networks (assuming a 100Mbps connection).
Read moreWhat is the band of spectrum called in 5G?
The frequency bands for 5G networks come in two sets. Frequency range 1 (FR1) is from 450 MHz to 6 GHz, which includes the LTE frequency range. Frequency range 2 (FR2) is from 24.25 GHz to 52.6 GHz. The sub-6 GHz range is the name for FR1 and the mmWave spectrum is the name for FR2 .
