Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and Comcast
(Nasdaq: CMCSA) today announced that Comcast is working with
Samsung to deliver 5G Radio Access Network (RAN) solutions that can
be used to enhance 5G connectivity for Xfinity Mobile and Comcast
Business Mobile customers in Comcast service areas. Samsung will
supply 5G RAN solutions for Comcast’s efforts to deliver 5G access

Samsung 5G RAN products to be provided include radios for CBRS
and 600MHz, baseband units, and a newly developed 5G CBRS Strand
Small Cell that can be deployed on Comcast’s aerial cable lines
(i.e. strand). Using the new compact and lightweight small cell
product, cable operators like Comcast can more easily and
cost-effectively provide 5G cellular connectivity by leveraging
their existing DOCSIS infrastructure without having to build or
acquire additional cell sites.
“Our capital-light approach to providing enhanced 5G
connectivity in service areas where we have a high concentration of
traffic and cable infrastructure is smart for our business and even
better for customers who will benefit from broader coverage and
industry-leading speeds and prices,” said Tom Nagel, SVP of
Wireless Strategy at Comcast. “Partnering with Samsung and
leveraging their leadership in 5G network innovation will help us
seamlessly deliver more next-generation applications and services
to our consumer and business mobile customers.”
“We are excited to collaborate with Comcast on their journey to
deliver the most enhanced 5G experiences available to their
customers,” said Mark Louison, Executive Vice President and Head of
Networks Business, Samsung Electronics America. “With this
partnership, Samsung continues to build on its wireless technology
leadership in commercial 5G rollouts. We look forward to helping
Comcast advance its goals in delivering best-in-class 5G mobile
services for their Xfinity Mobile and Comcast Business
customers.”
As the demand for reliable Internet access inside and outside of
the home and office rapidly increases, Comcast’s mid-band (CBRS)
and low-band (600MHz) spectrum enable the company to supplement its
existing Xfinity WiFi network and cellular network partnership with
additional 5G coverage in certain high-traffic areas within its
service areas. Comcast and Samsung are conducting field trials of
their new 5G network solution and are currently expanding these
trials to include Comcast employee testing
Xfinity Mobile and Comcast Business Mobile services are built
for the way people use mobile today, with the Internet at the core
of the experience. Calls and texts are free, and customers can
experience the freedom of paying by the gig at $15 for 1GB, $30 for
3GB, or $60 for 10GB, or by going unlimited at $45 for one line or

pricing on the market. Customers can switch between payment options
