TMUS Unveils Edge Control & T-Platform to Boost Business Connectivity

T-Mobile TMUS has taken another major step in redefining business connectivity. After setting a new standard with its nationwide 5G Advanced network, the company is enabling enterprises to fully embrace the era of real-time data, artificial intelligence (AI) and innovation. T-Mobile has expanded its Advanced Network Solutions (ANS) portfolio with two new capabilities, Edge Control and T-Platform, designed specifically for mission-critical operations where data security, low latency and network reliability are paramount.

What Do These New Capabilities Offer?

Edge Control combines 5G Advanced and local breakout technologies to deliver private network–level performance without the need for complex or costly deployments. Across industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, logistics and smart cities, businesses are increasingly relying on high-performance connectivity for real-time operations.

In healthcare, AI-driven predictive analytics and continuous patient monitoring are transforming care delivery. In 2024, 71% of hospitals used predictive AI integrated with electronic health records, up from 66% in 2023. However, traditional connectivity options like Wi-Fi often struggle to meet the demands of real-time data processing and strict data sovereignty requirements. Private networks can address these challenges, but they come with high costs and operational complexity.
Edge Control bridges this gap by allowing organizations to route and process data seamlessly between endpoints, servers and compute systems while maintaining ultra-low latency, data sovereignty and scalability. It enables enterprises to process data directly within their existing infrastructure, whether through private cloud environments or on-premises systems such as those offered by Dell Technologies, allowing greater control and compliance flexibility.

Built on T-Mobile’s 5G Advanced network, Edge Control provides an industry-first advantage by routing traffic exactly where it needs to go, with fewer network “hops” and no reliance on traditional VPN tunnels. Even users and devices across long distances experience low-latency, secure performance through optimized intra-network routing that ensures data remains local and efficient.

Meanwhile, T-Platform simplifies how enterprises manage their network ecosystems. Acting as a centralized management hub, it unifies all T-Mobile for Business solutions, including Edge Control, into a single, intuitive interface. This gives organizations real-time visibility and control over their entire connected ecosystem, from 5G Business Internet and IoT deployments to detailed network performance analytics. T-Platform is already being used by tens of thousands of businesses, transforming fragmented systems into cohesive, efficient network management solutions.

With Edge Control and T-Platform, T-Mobile continues to turn the promise of 5G into practical value for enterprises. These solutions empower organizations to innovate faster, operate securely and manage their networks with greater simplicity and control. Edge Control and T-Platform are now available to support businesses across industries.

T-Mobile boasts a leadership position in the 5G market. The company’s 5G network covers 98% of Americans, or 330 million people in the country. Its 2.5 GHz 5G spectrum delivers superfast speeds and extensive coverage with signals that go through walls and trees. This boosts its competitive edge against companies that provide 5G networks across the mmWave spectrum.

However, T-Mobile faces stiff competitive pressures that strain its margins. Spectrum crunch has become a major issue in the U.S. telecom industry as carriers like T-Mobile are finding it increasingly challenging to manage mobile data traffic, which is growing by leaps and bounds. High debt burden remains a significant concern.
