From August 1, the technology will offer Japan's fastest download speeds, up to 6.6Gbps,(1) using 5G Standalone (SA) architecture. These features will initially be available in specific zones within the 5G SA coverage areas in Tokyo and Kanagawa Prefecture,(2) with plans for a gradual expansion. Standalone (SA) mode is an optional 5G service for certain smartphones and other mobile devices under a 5G service contract. Utilization requires a 5G SA subscription, a compatible device, and a compatible SIM card. Services must be used within a 5G SA coverage area. In December 2021, DOCOMO began offering 5G SA services, and from August 2022 combines one of two Sub-6 frequencies with the millimeter-wave band to deliver maximum download speeds of 4.9Gbps and upload speeds of 1.1Gbps. With this latest development, both Sub-6 frequencies will be combined with the millimeter-wave band for even faster transmission speeds. Going forward, DOCOMO will continue to broaden its range of millimeter-wave band-compatible devices and extend service coverage in response to customer needs, with the goal of providing customers with enhanced convenience and quality of life. (1) The stated speeds are the maximums for sending and receiving under a 5G SA contract.
