Overview

T-Mobile US is a Bellevue, Washington-based mobile operator that sells private and private-style networking to businesses through the Advanced Network Solutions portfolio of T-Mobile for Business.[1][2] Its private network product is 5G On Demand, a portable, turnkey private 5G network that T-Mobile sets up, tears down and manages for broadcasts, events and field work; it also sells network slicing and Edge Control, a service on its public 5G Advanced network that it markets as an alternative to building a private network.[3][4][1] T-Mobile's business site argues that CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) is costly to scale and unsuited to mission-critical use because government users keep priority access.[2] Its published private network deployments center on the PGA of America's championships since 2024.[5][6]
