“Between fastballs, curveballs, homeruns, and stolen bases, fans
need a network that can keep up with it all,” said Ulf Ewaldsson,

that and more, extending beyond the stadium to bring an enhanced
experience to customers throughout Arlington.”
Here’s what fans at Globe Life Field and across Arlington have

fastest Ultra Capacity 5G (5G UC) and 200MHz of mmWave 5G.
- Peak download and upload speeds of 1.6 Gbps and 100 Mbps during
a game, fast enough to download movies like “The Sandlot” in just 5
seconds!
- Permanent 5G upgrades enhancing coverage and capacity in key
locations across Arlington’s entertainment district like Loews
Arlington Hotel and Convention Center, Texas Live!, Choctaw Stadium
and more.
- T-Mobile now covers 99% of Arlington with 5G UC, meaning more
T-Mobile customers have greater access to the Un-carrier’s fastest
5G offering in more places than ever before.
Further temporary enhancements include:
- Cell on Wheels (CoWs) and Cell on Light Trucks (CoLTs) in key
areas adjacent to the stadium throughout the week, improving
capacity even further so even more people can use their devices
without interruption. Perfect for streaming those tailgate
playlists.
“T-Mobile’s 5G infrastructure consistently enhances the fan
experience, delivering increased speed and low latency across the
