B26 (850 MHz)

LTE Band 26, labelled as E850 Upper, operates within the extended 850 MHz spectrum. This band leverages frequencies that traditionally catered to 2G and 3G services, repurposing them for modern LTE deployments. With its positioning in the sub-1 GHz range, Band 26 offers significant coverage advantages, making it particularly valuable for vast areas and challenging terrains. While its primary use is seen in the United States, the benefits of Band 26's coverage capabilities have made it a subject of interest for spectrum planning in various other regions.
