What:                 The Un-carrier™ today confirmed its Extended Range LTE, or 700 MHz low band spectrum, which now carries T-Mobile’s LTE signals both farther and deeper indoors than before, is now live throughout the Jersey Shore.
 
With a crazy fast deployment of a nationwide LTE footprint and coverage that reaches over 308 million Americans, the Jersey Shore is the latest area to benefit from T-Mobile’s best in-building coverage offering.
 
Extended Range LTE Coverage
T-Mobile has been furiously rolling out new spectrum that carries the LTE signal twice as far from towers, for a massive coverage expansion – plus it’s four times better in buildings than before.
 
In the past year, T-Mobile has deployed airwaves known as 700 MHz nationwide including cities such as Boston, Philadelphia, and New York City so you can use your compatible phone to get great 700 MHz coverage while visiting friends and family in those cities.
 
Extended Range LTE also enhances coverage in other areas already served by our strong 4G LTE network, so T-Mobile LTE customers there can experience better coverage in suburban and rural areas because the signal reaches further and penetrates deeper than before.
 
So whether you are enjoying a night out in Asbury Park or are planning to relax on Long Beach Island -- your coverage doesn’t have to be sacrificed.
 

“With summertime just around the corner, and millions of people expected to visit the Shore, it was a priority for us to roll out Extended Range LTE to cover New Jersey’s hottest beaches,” said Terry Hayes, Senior Vice President, Northeast Area. “Whether uploading a selfie to Instagram, downloading the hottest songs or posting to Facebook, our T-Mobile LTE customers won’t have to worry about staying connected with our best coverage offering.”

 

Customers with 700 MHz-compatible devices can already see the benefits. Check your device compatibility or upgrade through T-Mobile Equipment Installment Plan by visiting http://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phones.lte-band-twelve.html.

 
Where:               Extended Range LTE is now extends throughout the Jersey Shore to Un-carrier customers in cities, including Asbury Park, Long Beach Island, Point Pleasant Beach, Lavallette, Bradley Beach, Avon-by-the-Sea, Deal, Monmouth Beach, Allenhurst, Spring Lake, Atlantic City, Margate, Ocean City, Sea Isle, Avalon, Stone Harbor, Wildwood, Cape May and Seaside Heights (NJ).
 
Background:     The Shore is just the latest to receive T-Mobile’s best in-building coverage as performance enhancements of America’s fastest nationwide 4G LTE network never stop.
 
In addition to delivering America’s fastest nationwide 4G LTE network, T-Mobile has unleashed a steady drumbeat of industry-rocking Un-carrier moves, including abolishing restrictive annual service contracts, data limits, shock overages, the upgrade runaround, high international roaming charges and many more old-guard carrier practices.
