The commune owns 2 of the 13 masts, TDF owns 3.

2018 was the busiest year, with 40 new systems, most of them 4G. Free Mobile switched on the first 5G here in March 2021; Orange followed in November 2021, SFR followed in June 2022. The oldest transmitter still listed here goes back to 1997.

Approved additions not yet in service are pending on one existing mast, for example Orange (4G and 5G, including 5G at 3.5 GHz) at Le Bec Rouge. 9 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

3.5 GHz 5G is declared by Bouygues Telecom on 4 of its 5 masts, SFR on 4 of its 5 masts, Orange on 2 of its 7 masts and Free Mobile on 1 of its 3 masts. 62% of the town's masts carry 5G, fewer than across Savoie towns with five or more masts (79%).

Of the 13 masts in the commune, Orange is the only carrier on 7 masts.

By mast count, Tignes is 9th of the 18 Savoie towns that have five or more.

9 of the 13 masts are rooftop-mounted. The tallest support is 34 m (building). The median is 19 m, slightly below the Savoie median of 23 m.

Supports leave a gap of about 3.2 km to the south of the centre.

6.3 km to the south-east, neighbouring Val-d'Isere has a higher 5G share (77%).

Supports split between 9 buildings, 3 pylons and 1 mast.
