Mobile operator O2<\/a> has today announced that their new ultrafast 5G<\/a> based mobile broadband network is now live across parts of 60 UK towns and cities (up from 20 at the start of 2020), which puts them ahead of their target (50 places by summer). On top of that they’ve extended their roll-out of 4G<\/a> based LTE-M to 10,000 sites.<\/p>\n

The operator’s 5G<\/a> network first went live in busy areas of Belfast, Cardiff, Edinburgh, London, Slough and Leeds during October 2019, which was followed by Leicester and Lisburn in November 2019 and then Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow, Liverpool, Newcastle, Bradford, Sheffield, Coventry, Nottingham, Norwich, Bristol, Derby and Stoke in January 2020.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> O2<\/a>’s 5G<\/a> attracts no premium and includes its “Limitless<\/em>” plan for unlimited data.<\/div>\n

O2<\/a> had originally intended to reach 50 locations by summer 2020, but they appear to have beaten that by 10. Otherwise the operator, much like some of their rivals, only has access to a 40MHz slice of the 3.4GHz<\/strong> band, which will make it difficult for them to deliver on 5G’s much hyped gigabit speeds, but further radio spectrum bands are due to be auctioned off by Ofcom<\/a> later in 2020.<\/p>\n

The additional locations include key cities such as Aberdeen, Brighton and Oxford (the full list is pasted at the bottom of this article), although it’s worth reminding readers that it will often take awhile for O2 to fully extend their 5G coverage to reach right the way across each of these locations.<\/p>\n

Brendan O\u2019Reilly, CTO of O2, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“O2 is at the forefront of connectivity which is now one of the UK\u2019s most valued services. Our customer-centric networks, underpinned by 5G and LTE-M technologies, will help power this country into recovery as we look to rebuild Britain. As the UK faces an uncertain year ahead, it\u2019s vital we continue to invest in new innovations and technologies to keep Britain mobile and connected.<\/p>\n

I believe technologies like 5G and LTE-M are going to revolutionise the way people and businesses use mobile connectivity, unlocking huge possibilities for our economy and society. We\u2019re excited to be getting this next generation tech into the hands of more of our customers, with tariffs that are flexible and affordable.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On top of the 5G deployment, O2 has also announced that they’ve extended the coverage of their 4G<\/a> based LTE-M (Long Term Evolution<\/a> for Machines – Category M1) network to 10,000 sites<\/strong> (it was only 50 in February 2020), which is a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN \/ LPWA) service that is designed to connect Internet of Things<\/strong> (IoT) devices.<\/p>\n

The operator is one of the first in the UK to deploy LTE-M, although Three UK<\/a> are conducting a similar pilot (here<\/a>). Such networks tend to only use a tiny amount of spectrum bandwidth (1.4MHz – 5MHz) in order to deliver fairly slow mobile broadband speeds (1 – 7Mbps). But this is largely irrelevant since the small IoT kit that it’s designed to connect (e.g. traffic lights, environment sensors etc.) usually only require 0.1Mbps+.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> O2’s use of LTE-M Category M1 suggests symmetrical speeds of 1Mbps with latency of 10-15ms (1.4MHz of bandwidth).<\/div>\n

All of this makes LTE-M a useful alternative to older 2G networks, which are still in quite a bit of use today due to their low power requirements and high coverage. The operator’s decision to extend their deployment to 10,000 sites (mostly across the east of the country) – covering 57% of premises – is effectively equivalent to a national roll-out and they’re the first UK operator to make that leap.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere O2 currently offers 4G<\/a> in 19,185 cities, towns and villages across the UK and between Jan – May this year, it has upgraded 4G capacity in 90,954 UK postal codes. In total, O2 invests over \u00a32m a day in its network and their 5G deployment is being supplied by both Nokia and Ericsson.<\/p>\n
