below 1 GHz (coverage) 1–2.7 GHz 3–7 GHz mmWave · dashed = the JACS TD191-B lacks it · • = a main band
2degrees · Main bands on 2degrees: B3 B28. The JACS TD191-B lacks B28, so coverage or capacity will be patchy. Its coverage bands (B28) carry indoor and rural service; the JACS TD191-B has none of them.
One NZ · Main bands on One NZ: B3 B28. The JACS TD191-B lacks B28, so coverage or capacity will be patchy. Its coverage bands (B28) carry indoor and rural service; the JACS TD191-B has none of them.
Spark · Main bands on Spark: B3 B28. The JACS TD191-B lacks B28, so coverage or capacity will be patchy. Its coverage bands (B28) carry indoor and rural service; the JACS TD191-B has none of them.
