<\/p>\n

\tDish Network executives warned its fledgling mobile business could be significantly impacted by a plan from MVNO partner T-Mobile US to decommission its CDMA network on 1 January 2022.<\/p>\n

During a Q4 earnings call, Dish Network chairman Charlie Ergen branded the planned shutdown anti-competitive, arguing affected customers will \u201conly have a couple\u201d of options if the operator is not able to find another way to serve them by that point.<\/p>\n

He added T-Mobile would \u201cobviously\u201d be one of the primary beneficiaries of customer departures.<\/p>\n

John Swieringa, Dish Network EVP and president of retail wireless, stated it was \u201cplanning a big migration\u201d given a \u201cmajority\u201d of its mobile subscribers still use T-Mobile\u2019s CDMA network.<\/p>\n

He said a key focus was ensuring devices compatible with Dish Network\u2019s 5G network would be made available in time, to ensure customers don\u2019t face two technology changes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t be certain that the network will actually shutdown on that timeline, but we have to plan and act as if it will, which will be costly for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

5G update
\nDish Network is in the early stages of building a standalone (SA) 5G network [1], with launches in a handful of smaller markets due in the current quarter and major cities to be added from Q3.<\/p>\n

Ergen said the operator expects to encounter a few technical issues following the launch, but once those are solved \u201cevery month after the third quarter we\u2019ll be doing multiple cities\u201d to reach a government-mandated coverage target of 20 per cent of the US population by June 2022.<\/p>\n

Net income attributable to Dish Network jumped 88.1 per cent year-on-year in Q4 to $732.6 million and revenue increased 40.6 per cent to $4.55 billion.<\/p>\n

The operator lost 363,000 mobile subscribers, ending the quarter with 9.06 million: it attributed the decline to ongoing efforts to overhaul its user base [2].<\/p>\n
