Wireless carrier T-Mobile announced a multi-million strategy to expand its locations, while increasing its network’s coverage and capacity throughout the island.
T-Mobile has lit up 600 MHz Extended Range LTE technology in more than 900 cities and towns across 32 states, offering T-Mobile LTE coverage into 120 places, and will deploy the same advanced coverage in Puerto Rico in the fall, executives announced.
Puerto Rico’s wireless telecom providers have restored between 82 percent and 95 percent of services to sites ravaged by Hurricane María in September, but a full restoration will hinge on controlling vandalism, copper theft and restored energy service.
