Comcast
has confirmed that it will not be bidding in the US auction of wireless spectrum
in January.
America's largest cable television operator already owns a share of a
wireless band, which it bought as part of a consortium in 2006.
Comcast explained that its existing wireless capacity already offered "many
strategic options".
"We will continue to explore how wireless can complement our services through
various partnerships and consumer trials," said D'Arcy Rudnay, senior vice
president at Comcast.
The 700MHz wireless band is being sold off by the
Federal
Communications Commission as it is no longer used by TV stations that have
switched from analogue to digital.
