T-Mobile US has achieved the next level of 5G: a nationwide standalone (SA) 5G network. By doing so, the carrier has expanded its 5G footprint to almost an additional 2,000 cities and towns, while also driving the benefits of 5G into indoor spaces.
Karri Kuoppamaki, T-Mobile US’s vice president of technology development and strategy, stated that the SA 5G launch is a nationwide launch that expands T-Mobile’s 5G footprint by 30% and allowing it to now cover 1.3 million square miles.
