"5G networks in the US are showing millimeter wave signals aren't traveling > 350 feet, even when there are no major obstructions. They're also not penetrating walls or windows, making indoor coverage difficult." wired.com/story/choosing… "millimeter wave will not be easy or cheap"
"If the US government is serious about 5G they ought to be focusing on getting CBRS and the C-Band spectrum into the market as quickly as possible. The 'Real 5G' is going to flourish in what we now call mid-band spectrum, between 2.5GHz and 4.2GHz." lightreading.com/mobile/5g/abse…
The cost of building out in millimeter wave spectrum + poor propagation in millimeter wave = Phoenix sold at only 0.0218 per MHz/POP.

The lower the spectrum the better the unit economics of a MHz. Deployment gets hard above 2.5 and really hard above 6Ghz.lightreading.com/mobile/5g/amer…
