Why Spectrum Matters for Connecting the World.
For AST SpaceMobile, spectrum is at the heart of our mission to bring true broadband from space to everyday smartphones. When you make a call, stream a video, or send a message, your phone is not just using hardware. It is tapping into an invisible resource called radio spectrum, the ‘lanes of a highway ’ in the sky, carrying the phone signals.
As of today, AST SpaceMobile has access to:
1,150 MHz low- and mid-band tunable MNO spectrum globally
45 MHz of AST SpaceMobile-licensed MSS low-mid band spectrum in North America
60 MHz of AST SpaceMobile-licensed S-band spectrum outside North America
50+ MNO partners’ allocated spectrum
This is about what spectrum enables: the ability to power voice, video, apps, streaming , email, browsing on your regular smartphone, without any special hardware or modifications.
