The FCC’s 600MHz incentive auction officially wrapped up earlier this year following a lot of back and forth between the TV broadcasters, the FCC, and the auction bidders. Now the results of that auction have come out.

T-Mobile announced today that it came away with 1,525 licenses and an average of 31 MHz nationwide, which it spent a total of $7.99 billion on. T-Mo won 45 percent of all of the low-band spectrum available in the auction. This spectrum covers every bit of the US and Puerto Rico, and you can check out the depth of T-Mobile’s 600MHz spectrum winnings in the map below.

As for when you’ll actually see the benefits of this 600MHz auction, T-Mobile CTO Neville Ray says that T-Mo will start deploying this year in both new and existing markets. Also of note is that Qualcomm is working on smartphone chipsets that support 600 MHz and that T-Mo suggests that smartphone makers could start offering 600MHz-compatible phones as soon as this year.

When it comes to the auction as a whole, the FCC says that T-Mobile, US Cellular, Dish, and Comcast emerged as the biggest winners. The forward auction included $19.8 billion in gross revenues, which is the second largest in FCC auction history.

There was 70 MHz of low-band spectrum made available in the auction, as well as 14 MHz available for wireless mics and unlicensed use. There were 2,776 license blocks sold in the auction out of a total of 2,912 offered. The FCC also says that there were a total of 50 winning bidders in the forward auction.
