# Spectrum Bands

Karrier One Cellular operates across several spectrum bands depending on the radio hardware, regulatory region, and coverage needs. Each band offers different trade-offs in range, penetration, and capacity.

***

### 📶 Supported Frequency Bands

#### 🟦 **700 MHz** (Low Band)

* **Use Case:** Wide-area coverage, strong wall penetration
* **Ideal For:** Rural roads, homes, industrial zones, underground
* **Range:** Long (up to 10+ km)
* **Bandwidth:** Low capacity per user, but very reliable
* **Benefit:** Ideal for filling coverage gaps and building penetration

***

#### 🟨 **900 MHz** (Sub-GHz Band)

* **Use Case:** Balanced rural/suburban deployment
* **Ideal For:** Suburban zones, perimeter coverage, large buildings
* **Range:** Medium-long
* **Bandwidth:** Moderate
* **Benefit:** Excellent balance of range and building penetration

***

#### 🟥 **2600 MHz** (Mid Band)

* **Use Case:** High-speed urban deployments
* **Ideal For:** Downtown areas, commercial zones, campuses
* **Range:** Short-medium (1–2 km)
* **Bandwidth:** High capacity, supports large user load
* **Benefit:** Best for dense areas where speed is critical

### 🔄 Dynamic Allocation

Using Karrier One’s **KNS Orchestration Module**, bands may be dynamically allocated based on:

* Device capability
* Interference levels
* Network congestion
* Regional regulations
