In Chicago, Sprint is using 64T64R (64 transmitters 64 receivers) 5G Massive MIMO radios from Samsung Networks.

Today in Chicago, we are excited to be supporting Sprint as they deliver 5G service to the people of this city. Samsung’s innovative 5G Massive MIMO solutions are a driving force behind the successful launch of Sprint’s 5G mobile service, and the companies continue to join in pushing beyond the limits of legacy technologies to create new value across industries.
