Preparations for the 2024 MLB All-Star Week celebration at Texas is underway, including for T-Mobile. Today, the Un-carrier announced that it has installed permanent 5G coverage and capacity enhancements inside Globe Life Field in Arlington. While this network enhancement comes ahead of the much-awaited celebration, it will continue to improve the experience of local T-Mobile customers long after the festivities are over.
With the network enhancement, here’s what customers can expect:
- 100% 5G coverage inside Globe Life Field, including T-Mobile’s fastest Ultra Capacity 5G (5G UC) and 200MHz of mmWave 5G.
- Peak download and upload speeds of 1.6 Gbps and 100 Mbps during a game, fast enough to download movies like “The Sandlot” in just 5 seconds!
- Permanent 5G upgrades enhancing coverage and capacity in key locations across Arlington’s entertainment district like Loews Arlington Hotel and Convention Center, Texas Live!, Choctaw Stadium and more.
- T-Mobile now covers 99% of Arlington with 5G UC, meaning more T-Mobile customers have greater access to the Un-carrier’s fastest 5G offering in more places than ever before.
In an announcement, T-Mobile’s President of Technology, Ulf Ewaldsson, said:
“Between fastballs, curveballs, homeruns, and stolen bases, fans need a network that can keep up with it all. Our upgrades deliver exactly that and more, extending beyond the stadium to bring an enhanced experience to customers throughout Arlington.”
