- 15. Coming Soon: Sprint 4G - LTE Sprint will begin a rapid national rollout of LTE on our existing spectrum with continued support of WiMax through 2012 • Sprint plans to launch 4G LTE on its 1900 MHz spectrum, beginning with Atlanta, Dallas, Houston and San Antonio in the first half of 2012 • Network build-out is expected to be complete by the end of 2013, covering 250 million people • The first CDMA-LTE devices are expected to launch by mid-2012, with approximately 15 devices coming throughout the year • CDMA-WiMAX 4G devices will continue to be sold throughout 2012. The WiMAX network will be supported through at least 2015. 15
- 16. Sprint 4G Rapid Expansion While continuing to support WiMax, 4G will continue to grow, covering an estimated 250M people by the end of 2013 4G Covered Population 2012 2013 WiMax LTE WiMax LTE 120M 123M 120M 250M Overlap: 67M Overlap: 120M Total 4G POPs: 176M Total 4G POPs: 250M 16
- 17. Expected 4G LTE Customer Benefits With the enhancement of Sprint 4G through Network Vision, coverage and signal strength are expected to expand greatly across the network BEFORE AFTER 17
- 18. LTE Advanced Beginning in 2013, Sprint plans to begin rolling out LTE Advanced as part of Network Vision, providing additional technological benefits 18

- Building on a long history of innovation and leadership, Sprint is deploying a next-generation wireless network that will revolutionize the telecom industry and provide exponential enhancements to business communications. The e volution of the Sprint Network is achieved with state of the art technologies – covering both 3G and 4G services.
- Restate benefits and if possible, relate them to your customer. Evolution of Sprint Network to state of the art network technologies – covering both 3G and 4G services.
- Network Vision isn’t just about 4G. In fact, all of Sprint’s major services – Push-to-Talk, Voice, 3G data, and 4G - are being upgraded through this initiative. Additionally, Network Vision will allow us to evolve again when the time is right – next time and beyond.
- “ Today” Push to Talk refers to iDEN network then under “Vision” we move to the Sprint Direct Connect platform using CDMA. The “green” color indicates that 3 networks become one.
- The “green” color indicates that the network become unified allowing spectrums to support any protocol/purpose.
- The picture on the left shows current multiple network hardware at the base of the tower. The picture on the right depicts the new streamlined configuration.
- Targeting completion of Network Vision deployment by the end of 2013 – two years sooner than originally scheduled Rollout and successful testing and trialing of multimode technology on ~38,000 cell sites in progress test calls, field integration testing Solidified tower company agreements: Alcatel / Lucent, Ericsson and Samsung Sprint successfully launched Sprint ® Direct Connect ® on the CDMA network on October 2, 2011 Many of the technical risks associated with the deployment of Network Vision are behind us. As with all network builds, site zoning and approvals pose some execution risk. Considerable progress has been made on Network Vision. Since being announced in December of 2010, Sprint and its vendors have achieved many technical milestones (e.g., test calls, field integration testing, etc.), began work on 38,000 cell sites, solidified tower company agreements, launched Sprint Direct Connect on the CDMA network and prepped the network for new device launches including the iPhone
- SDC launched on October 2, 2011 Coverage will be expanded in 1H2012 Why is this version of PTT better than the previous version Sprint tried to launch? Answer: PTT over CDMA was launched on Oct. 2. Three new SDC devices are launching in 4Q11 with more in 2012. The benefits of Sprint Direct Connect are: Increased PTT Coverage – With the combination of CDMA PTT -- working over 1XRTT -- and roaming, the PTT coverage improvements that are slated for later this year is expected to offer nearly three times the footprint of our current Nextel Direct Connect service and cover more than 309 million people across 2.7 million square miles in 2012. NEW PTT + 3G CDMA data + Android device - Our first Android PTT device on 3G will come with faster 3G data speeds so that customers can use larger data applications, a bigger screen ideal for web surfing and multi-media, and access to the open Android application market . International PTT Expected in early 2012, International push-to-talk on CDMA will begin a phased launch.
- SDC launched on October 2, 2011 Coverage will be expanded in 1Q’2012, yellow represents end state.
- This is a sample of changes before and after network vision is implemented which predicts enhanced coverage areas in green.
- Sprint will begin a rapid national rollout of LTE on its 1900MHz spectrum. Sprint plans to launch 4G LTE on its 1900MHz spectrum by midyear 2012 and complete the network build-out by the end of 2013. By the conclusion of 2013, Sprint’s 4G coverage footprint is expected to cover more than 250 million people. Sprint expects to launch CDMA-LTE devices by mid-2012, with approximately 15 devices coming throughout the year – including handsets, tablets and data cards. Additionally, CDMA-WiMAX 4G devices, like the award-winning HTC EVO TM 4G, Samsung Epic TM 4G Touch and Nexus S TM 4G, will continue to be sold throughout 2012.
- Today, through its wholesale relationship with Clearwire, Sprint offers 4G WiMAX service that covers 120M people. By the end of 2012, Sprint expects to cover 123 million POPs, 67 million of which will overlap with WiMAX POPs. By the end of 2013, the Sprint LTE network is expected to cover 250 million POPs, 120 million of which overlap with WiMAX POPs. By the end of the program, we anticipate covering approximately 277 million POPs.
