Sprint Corporation, formerly a major mobile network operator in the United States, played a significant role in the nation's telecommunications landscape for many years. Operating under Mobile Country Code (MCC) 311 and Mobile Network Code (MNC) 882, Sprint provided voice, data, and internet services across North America & Caribbean. Known for its innovative approaches and, at times, competitive pricing, Sprint aimed to challenge the market dominance of Verizon and AT&T. It focused on offering diverse plans and technologies to cater to a wide range of consumer needs within the United States. Before its merger with T-Mobile, Sprint invested heavily in nationwide network infrastructure, pushing technologies like CDMA and later LTE. Although offering a robust 4G LTE coverage, Sprint faced challenges in keeping pace with the rapid advancements and increased network investment of its larger competitors inside the United States. The company notably also offered WiMAX technology prior to LTE, an early attempt to deliver faster mobile broadband. Ultimately, its merger with T-Mobile in 2020 marked the end of Sprint as an independent entity, with its network and spectrum being integrated into the larger T-Mobile infrastructure; T-Mobile is progressively decommissioning the old Sprint network and re-farming the spectrum for 5G purposes as of 2024.
