CBRS spectrum auction maps: Who won what, and where

The FCC’s first big midband spectrum auction, Auction 105 for 3.5GHz CBRS licenses, ended last week – and now it’s time to sift through the results.

The auction raised a total of $4.6 billion in bids, mainly from the likes of Verizon, Dish Network, Comcast and Charter Communications. Here is the list of the 20 biggest spenders in the auction.

But that’s just the top-line information. What’s really important is how much spectrum bidders purchased, and where their licenses are located geographically. After all, buying a 10MHz license covering Las Vegas, New Mexico, is not the same as buying 40MHz covering Las Vegas, Nevada.

The below auction maps have been supplied to Light Reading by Stephen Wilkus of Spectrum Financial Partners, Moise Advisory and JMA Wireless. Each map includes information on the provider of the data, which is all derived from the FCC’s Auction 105 results.
