Charter Communications and Comcast have entered into a multi-year exclusive agreement with T-Mobile to utilize its 5G network to deliver mobile services to their business customers across the United States. The service is set to launch in 2026, expanding their leadership in wireline and wireless offerings. The partnership will leverage T-Mobile's advanced mobile network through a long-term Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) relationship [1].

This strategic collaboration allows Charter and Comcast to offer their business customers premium 5G mobile services under the Spectrum Mobile for Business and Comcast Business Mobile brands. The partnership complements the existing MVNO arrangements, focusing on providing wholesale mobile connectivity to business customers while continuing to support residential and current business customers [2].

Edward Zimmermann, President of Comcast Business, described the deal as "capital-light," emphasizing its importance in strengthening the company's wireless growth strategy. Danny Bowman, Executive Vice President of Product at Charter Communications, noted that the partnership creates a "truly converged connectivity experience" by combining gig-powered internet, superior WiFi service, and premium 5G mobile networks [3].

Omar Tazi, T-Mobile's EVP and Chief Product and Digital Officer, highlighted the strategic importance of the collaboration, stating that it complements T-Mobile's existing business offerings and expands the reach of its network to more business customers [1]. This move underscores T-Mobile's expanding role as the go-to 5G wholesale provider, reinforcing its market leadership by supporting over 18 million mobile lines operated by Comcast and Charter since their wireless debuts [2].

The financial terms of the agreement remain undisclosed, but the partnership is expected to bring incremental value to T-Mobile by tapping into a unique segment of business users traditionally served by broadband providers. Charter and Comcast, meanwhile, gain access to the fastest and most expansive 5G network in the country, further enhancing their converged service portfolios for businesses [2].

This collaboration marks a significant step in the evolution of wireless services for business customers, leveraging the strengths of each partner to deliver advanced, integrated connectivity solutions.
