Sprint CFO Tarek Robbiati says the struggling U.S. carrier is looking to the future and 5G with its as-yet unspecified network improvement plans, which revolve around a densification strategy.
Robbiati made the remarks during Deutsche Bank’s Media, Internet and Telecom conference on March 9.
“We’re not building a network that’s 4G,” he said. “4G is almost a thing of the past. We’re building a 5G network for the future, and 5G networks are fundamentally different to 4G networks. They’re all around high capacity and the more spectrum you have, the more capacity you have.”
