路透社2026/10/08 20:32Reuters, October 8 - SpaceX announced on Thursday that it has reached an agreement to acquire a portfolio of low-band spectrum licenses covering the entire United States, which will make Starlink Mobile a major telecom operator in the country. While Starlink Mobile’s existing global 2 GHz mid-band spectrum enables high bandwidth capacity in the US, the new spectrum will allow its signals to penetrate obstacles.
