Following a keynote from T-Mobile?s Chief Technology Officer Neville Ray at the NGMN conference this morning, senior vice president of technology Dave Mayo today provided an update regarding the company?s $4 billion 4G network plan.
We already knew T-Mobile would be making its 4G HSPA+ in the 1900 MHz band available to iPhone users later this year as its new network equipment gets installed. It recently confirmed it begun testing the network on a small scale. Today we get an update on the progress of the carrier?s 4G rollout with Mayo confirming installations of new equipment at the first 400 modernized GSM / HSPA+ sites will be complete by the end of June with the number growing to 2,500 sites by the end of July. He also noted the carrier has been approved for 19,500 additional sites, indicating the LTE network is on track for its 2013 rollout.
Mayo confirmed iPhone users can expect ?more of these speed sightings will occur? as the carrier prepares to introduce its 4G HSPA+ service in the 1900 MHz spectrum ?in a large number of markets later this year.? He also said next-generation Release-10 equipment will be used in its LTE trials this summer.
