TPG Telecom will pick up 3.6GHz spectrum while some 2.6GHz spectrum will flow in the other direction.
The company behind TPG and Vodafone said on Monday it has picked up some contiguous 5G spectrum in the 3.6GHz band from Dense Air. The deal, which sees TPG purchase a local Dense Air subsidiary, will take TPG Telecom’s spectrum holdings up to 95MHz in Brisbane, Canberra, and Perth; 90MHz in Adelaide, and 65MHz in Sydney and Melbourne. «This spectrum acquisition will enhance our 5G customer experience and set us up for future customer growth as we roll out our 5G home internet service to meet customer demand for NBN alternatives,» TPG Telecom CEO Iñaki Berroeta said.
