C-band Seeing Propagation Struggles: Analyst

WASHINGTON, July 23, 2024 – C-band spectrum might not be an ideal vehicle for 5G coverage, according to one telecom industry analyst.

 MoffettNathanson Senior Managing Director Craig Moffett wrote in a note to investors yesterday that he’s skeptical of the 3.7 GHz band that Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile spent more than $78 billion combined on in 2021, arguing propagation issues are hampering coverage availability.
