Verizon has revealed that it will light up its mmWave 5G service in New York City in one week, on September 26th.
As with all mmWave deployments, it will focus on dense, downtown areas and public spaces, rather than broad citywide coverage. The coverage areas include parts of uptown, midtown, and downtown Manhattan, along with select parts of Brooklyn, the Bronx, and Queens. NYC is Verizon’s 11th 5G city.
The company has promised to launch 5G in 30 US cities by the end of the year.
