C Spire Launches Millimeter Wave Fixed Wireless

C spire has launched fixed wireless using millimeter wave spectrum in a housing development in Mississippi, using Phazr gear. The Harrison County subdivision is near the city of Gulfport, Miss.

The 5G millimeter wave fixed wireless service, launched in early December, is being offered in the 84-home Landon Place subdivision and served by a nearby C Spire cell site using 28 GHz equipment from the company’s partner and 5G millimeter wave innovator, Phazr, a JMA Wireless company.

Residents connected to the service have been getting download speeds of up to 750 Mbps, upload speeds of up to 600 Mbps with latency as low as 8 milliseconds, according to C Spire President Stephen Bye.

Bye said the company plans to deploy fixed wireless internet service to thousands of consumers and businesses across the state over the next several years.
