Systems from 2005 are still on the register. Free Mobile switched on the first 5G here in December 2020; Bouygues Telecom followed in December 2023, SFR followed in December 2023. 2023 was the busiest year, with 15 new systems, most of them 5G.

Over the past 12 months ANFR recorded 10 new systems here. 4 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

The highest support stands 58 m at La Croix de Launay (water tower). The median is 30 m, slightly below the Loir-et-Cher median of 34 m.

3 supports carry only Orange.

3 masts belong to ATC France and 1 to On Tower France.

On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Bouygues Telecom on 1 of its 3 masts, Free Mobile on 1 of its 2 masts, Orange on 1 of its 3 masts and SFR on 1 of its 3 masts.

The widest declared gap between neighbouring supports is about 5.3 km, to the north of the centre.

14 km to the east, neighbouring Mur-de-Sologne has less 5G (40%).
