Sprint to Use Cox's Infrastructure for Some Backhaul
Jan 18, 2018, 9:33 AM by Eric M. Zeman
Sprint and Cox Communications today said they've agreed to work together to improve one another's businesses. Sprint plans to use Cox's broadband infrastructure to improve its macro backhaul performance, as well as to densify its wireless network through the use of small cells. Sprint will make use of macro towers, air poles, strand mounts, and repeaters all patched into Cox's network to improve coverage. It will be putting its 2.5 GHz spectrum to use with the Cox-supported small cells. Sprint owns more than 160 MHz of 2.5 GHz spectrum in the top 100 markets around the U.S. Today's deal was also reached in part to settle patent litigation between the companies, according to Sprint.
