Response to the Draft RSPG Opinion on a 6G roadmap

The publication of an EU-level spectrum roadmap marks an important and timely milestone in setting out Europe’s approach to 6G. Early guidance on potential future 6G bands, including the upper 6 GHz range, 7-8 GHz, and sub-700 MHz, allows operators to plan investments, support ecosystem development, and engage in international harmonisation discussions. Upper 6 GHz could be considered as the ‘6G capacity band’ and sub-700 MHz as the ‘6G coverage band’.

This roadmap will help shape global 6G developments and strengthen Europe’s digital leadership and economic competitiveness.
