Is that due to 5G itself, or the paucity of devices supporting it,
hence lack of congestion?
Also, honest question for those more knowledgeable: does a doubling of
frequency (i.e. 1700MHz to 3500MHz) equate to a doubling of bandwidth?
One other factor is the higher the frequency, the shorter the range, so
the higher bands need more cell sites to provide the same coverage.
This article has a table of the various bands Rogers uses. The lowest
frequency band is 600 MHz and the highest is 3.5 GHz. Some bands are
shared between 4G and 5G and others are not. There are also remnants of
2G and 3G listed.

The band numbers correspond to this list of the various cell bands.
