    Samsung has announced that its solutions are being used by US Cellular for 5G network expansion in the Mid-Atlantic states in the USA. The network carrier has used Samsung's mmWave and virtualized Radio Access Network (vRAN) technologies for network expansion.

    Samsung and US Cellular have worked together to deploy a new network architecture using Samsung's mmWave and vRAN solutions. This expansion will help support US Cellular's growing fixed wireless access (FWA) and mobile traffic. This network was opened to customers in some regions in November 2024.

    In the Mid-Atlantic states, Samsung’s 5G Compact Macro solution was used. It is a 3GPP-based distributed architecture that offers mmWave 5G connectivity by combining antenna, baseband, and radio into a single, small device. Thanks to its lightweight design, it is easier to install.

    The 5G Compact Macro device from Samsung Networks offers 5G connectivity in the 28GHz and 39GHz bands.

    Mike Dienhart, VP of Engineering and Network Operations, UScellular, said, “We’re excited to work with Samsung as we continue to enhance our next-generation network. Tapping into the ultra-high bandwidth of the mmWave spectrum allows us to unleash new capabilities and deliver cutting-edge customer experiences. Samsung’s proven expertise in innovative 5G and vRAN makes them an ideal partner.
