2019 was the busiest year, with 13 new systems, most of them 4G. Free Mobile opened 5G here in December 2020; SFR followed in December 2020, Bouygues Telecom followed in December 2021. The oldest transmitter still listed here goes back to 1997.

Approved additions not yet in service are pending on 2 existing masts, for example SFR (5G 2100 MHz) at La Bourdonnière and SFR (4G and 5G, including 5G at 3.5 GHz) at 22 Voie Romaine. 8 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 all 4 masts, Orange on all 3 masts, SFR on 2 of its 3 masts and Free Mobile on 1 of its 4 masts. 100% of the town's masts carry 5G, more than across Indre-et-Loire towns with five or more masts (81%).

Of the 6 masts in the commune, 2 masts carry all four networks.

Supports leave a gap of about 2.5 km to the west of the centre.

5.3 km to the east, neighbouring Saint-Cyr-sur-Loire has less 5G (83%).

By mast count, Fondettes is 16th of the 30 Indre-et-Loire towns that have five or more. With 6 masts for 10,954 residents, or 5 per 10,000, it has fewer masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (11).
