T-Mobile Aims to Pass 12 to 15 Million More Households with Fiber by 2030

T-Mobile expects to pass between 12 million and 15 million more households with fiber by 2030 through its fiber partnerships, company executives told attendees at a September 18 T-Mobile investor event. The company’s fiber partnerships include a joint venture with investment firm EQT that will acquire Lumos and a joint venture with KKR to acquire Metronet. Unsurprisingly, T-Mobile sees strong potential to convert customers who currently use the company’s fixed wireless service to fiber. “We think there are synergies with our 5G fixed wireless customer base in markets where we’re launching fiber,” said Mike Katz, T-Mobile president of marketing strategy and products.
