Mobile operator O2<\/a> UK has today announced that their new ultrafast 5G<\/a> based mobile broadband network has now gone live across a total of over 150 UK towns and cities (up from 108 in October and 60 in June 2020), which includes new locations like Bournemouth, Cheltenham, Doncaster and Southampton.<\/p>\n

Unlike other operators, which were hit hard after the Government’s U-turn in July 2020 to ban “high risk vendor<\/em>” Huawei<\/strong> from future 5G<\/a> deployments (here<\/a>), O2<\/a> has benefited from their early decision to go with solutions from rivals Nokia<\/strong> and Ericsson<\/strong> instead. Suffice to say that this is enabling them to catch-up, despite having an otherwise late start to deployment in October 2019.<\/p>\n

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

However, the operator, much like some of their rivals, currently only has access to a limited 40MHz slice of the 3.4GHz<\/strong> band for dedicated 5G services (excluding any dynamic spectrum sharing with 4G<\/a>), which will make it difficult for them to deliver on 5G’s much hyped gigabit speeds. But Ofcom<\/a> may help to resolve this when they kick off their next spectrum auction (this is imminent).<\/p>\n

Take note that it often takes a long time for operators to achieve strong coverage of a location once they start a new deployment (months to years) and the initial focus is often on the busiest areas, as well as primary cell\/mast sites (i.e. they don’t magically hit 100% coverage from day one).<\/p>\n

For example, O2 are still increasing their 5G footprint and capacity in existing places like London, Birmingham, Glasgow, Bristol, Liverpool and Manchester amongst others.<\/p>\n

Derek McManus, COO of O2, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We are delighted with the progress of our 5G rollout and to be able to offer customers in over 150 locations the benefits of our high-speed network.<\/p>\n

Once again we are facing tough lockdown restrictions and we are focused on ensuring we meet the demand for increased network capacity and reliability to keep everyone connected during this time. We\u2019re also proud of leading the charge from an environmental point of view, with 67% of our estate powered by renewable energy as we work with landlords to encourage usage of more renewable sources.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

All of this will no doubt help to benefit their merger agreement with cable broadband ISP Vir<\/a>gin Media<\/a>, which will hopefully get the final green light soon. Sadly, O2 didn’t provide a full list of 5G locations in their PR this time around, but thankfully they were kind enough to send us one when we asked (see below) and the coverage checker on their website should help.<\/p>\n
