T-Mobile Sends 5G Over 600MHz With Qualcomm's X55 5G Modem and Ericsson's Network Equipment

摘要

T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS), Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM), and Ericsson (NASDAQ: ERIC) announced they've achieved the world's first low-band 5G data session on a commercial 5G modem. The data session was conducted in T-Mobile's lab in Bellevue, Washington on 600 MHz - the same spectrum T-Mobile is using to roll out broad, nationwide 5G in the U.S. - marking a major milestone in delivering 5G across America beyond urban areas. The data session was completed on a mobile test device powered by the second-generation Qualcomm Snapdragon X55 5G modem, RF transceiver and RF Front-End (RFFE) solution, as well as commercial 5G radios from the Ericsson Radio System portfolio. The demonstration is an important step toward the launch of the first commercial 5G network using low-band spectrum.
