850+

Known as the "850+" band, the n26 band operates in the 850 MHz frequency range and is used for 5G NR networks. Wider than the n5 band, n26 provides substantial coverage and good building penetration, which makes it valuable for both urban and rural deployments. After acquiring additional 850 MHz spectrum, Telstra is widening its n5 850 MHz network to become an n26 service, improving its 5G data performance across Australia.
