Verizon selected by the U.S. Air Force for 5G and network upgrades at 35 installations
The U.S. Air Force (USAF) has selected Verizon Business to install 5G and/or 4G LTE network enhancements on 35 Air Force installations located throughout the United States. Through the Air Force’s Offer to Lease (OTL) program, Verizon Business will deliver network enhancements like C-Band carrier adds, new macro builds, and small cells. Verizon’s network solutions will bring higher speeds, increased bandwidth and lower latency for base personnel and the surrounding community, contributing to the diverse missions at each base while also enhancing the quality of life for personnel and military families. “This is Verizon’s 7th OTL win out of 8 attempts, which serves as a testament to the trust the U.S. Air Force has in the strength and speed of our network, as well as the quality of the professional and managed services expertise they gain from our people,” said Maggie Hallbach, senior vice president, Verizon Public Sector. “We are honored to have Verizon Business serve as one of their most trusted partners.”
