Despite an ongoing back-and-forth with the airline industry, FAA and FCC around the impact C Band-based 5G could impact aircraft operations, Verizon is committed to activate its mid-band 5G network on Jan. 19. Once that happens, the operator’s Ultra Wideband 5G service, comprised of mmWave and C Band, will be available to 100 million points of presence.
Along with this major expansion of its mobile network, Verizon is also expanding the reach of its fixed wireless access broadband internet offerings, 5G Home and 5G Business.
