For anyone in entertainment, remote is relative. One week it’s a backlot, the next a cabin or a ridgeline, with no cell towers in sight. And yet, the work doesn’t stop. Approvals, uploads, last-minute rewrites—they all happen wherever the job takes you.

Enter T-Mobile, flipping the script on cell coverage and taking signals where no network has gone before. T-Mobile is the first U.S. wireless provider to integrate satellite and mobile coverage into one seamless experience, connecting users in places traditional networks can’t reach. No new device needed — most modern smartphones from the last four years will automatically connect when a tower signal drops. If you can see the sky, you’re connected.

Satellite Connection: A Game-Changer for National Coverage 

Launching nationwide on July 23 and included at no extra cost with the Experience Beyond plan, T-Mobile’s new satellite layer isn’t just an upgrade, it’s a first. As the only U.S. wireless provider combining mobile and satellite into one seamless network, it brings unmatched confidence to any production. The service extends coverage into 500,000 square miles of U.S. territory, including those covered by AT&T and Verizon.

Whether you’re deep in the mountains or far off the grid, location no longer dictates communication. You stay connected when others can’t. In an industry where time zones shift by the hour and shoots stretch into unpredictable terrain, this kind of reach isn’t just rare, it’s revolutionary.

Designed for People Who Move And Move Fast

T-Mobile’s superior network is built around a simple idea: people matter more than maps. T-Satellite will support SMS for Android and iOS users; and will roll out MMS, picture messaging and short audio clips for Android with iOS support to follow. Starting Oct. 1, data-based service will go live.

This isn’t about coverage charts and tower dots, it’s about real life. Life happens in motion. And your connection should, too. Whether you’re reviewing dailies in a national park or locking in talent via text at 10,000 feet, you’ll stay connected. Satellite messaging picks up where traditional signal ends, giving cast and crew the ability to stay connected, anywhere, any time.

Belonging Comes With Benefits

Coverage is just the beginning. With Magenta Status, T-Mobile members unlock exclusive benefits across travel, entertainment, and lifestyle from the moment they join. Free in-flight Wi-Fi. VIP access to 8,000+ concerts. Travel discounts, including Hilton. All included. No upgrades. No tiers. It’s a membership made for people who live beyond the 9-to-5 – those whose careers happen on the move, and whose downtime still depends on staying connected.

Beginning July 8, T-Mobile will offer free DashPass (a $120 value) to customers of select plans, unlocking an affordable and convenient way to order take-out, groceries and more on DoorDash with $0 delivery fees and other perks.
