Another Link 5G, on Vanderbilt Ave at Myrtle Ave Fort Greene/Clinton Hill. What bugs me the most about these things, aside from the hulking nature of them, is the placement. This particular area needs no help with cell coverage. In fact, it’s directly under a Verizon macro site with 2 Gbps mmWave. T-Mobile has 3 sites within just a few blocks. Even ATT is just three blocks away. Unless Dish intends to use these things for its rollout, most of the Links are likely going to be empty forever.
My phone has been showing 5G at 33rd street for a long time. I think the DAS might be off or something since the the signal is never strong when I’m near the antenna.
The DAS at Grand Central for the Lexington lines platform (4/5/6) has upgraded B2 for T-Mobile to 20 MHz. Also, 23rd, 28th, and 33rd Street stations on the 6 line have ULI (UpperLayer Indicator for anchoring a 5G band) turned on.
