Each facility is getting outdoor C-band radios deployed to deliver 5G service, both for personnel on the base and to serve the surrounding community. There will also be a mix of 4G and 5G millimeter wave frequency indoors at certain locations, the Verizon spokesperson said. Together the network services are expected to significantly enhance coverage across the deployments, deliver faster speeds, increased bandwidth and lower latency.Verizon plans to start deploying its first batch of C-band spectrum for 5G when it becomes available later this year, expecting to add between 7,000-8,000 new sites to its network. Its millimeter wave-based 5G service, which uses the “Ultra Wideband” moniker, is currently available to consumers in parts of 82 cities. Verizon said the Air Force is looking to support a range of new applications as the U.S. military digitizes operations. It’s tapping technologies for things like animated simulation and training; full-motion HD video to support telemedicine for airmen; and ultra-fast AI for biometric identification.“Serving as an indispensable partner to the military and their strategic digital transformation objectives is one of our highest priorities,” said Jennifer Chronis, SVP for Public Sector at Verizon, in a statement. “Air Force leadership describes their modernization as a transition from an industrial-age force to an information-age force and Verizon Public Sector is their partner in that journey, providing a 5G network with the right technology solutions to meet their needs today, and into the future.”Chronis, a U.S. Army veteran with former roles at AWS and IBM, was chosen to head up Verizon’s public sector earlier this year. In April she talked to Fierce about opportunities for growth and called out the carrier’s acquisition of mid-band 3.7 GHz spectrum at the C-band auction as helping efforts in the segment, along with the expectation of mobile edge compute adoption to “really take off in the federal and public sector.” -- ???????? | |||
