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
