On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Free Mobile on 1 of its 3 masts and Orange on 1 of its 3 masts. 5G is on 50% of masts here, against 89% across Haut-Rhin towns with five or more masts.

ANFR lists a 39 m pylon at Le Coin as the tallest structure. The median height of measured supports is 32 m.

Among the 18 Haut-Rhin towns with at least five masts, Orbey ranks 13th by mast count. With 6 masts for 3,429 residents, or 17 per 10,000, it has more masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (8).

3 masts belong to TDF.

The widest declared gap between neighbouring supports is about 2.8 km, to the south-west of the centre.

Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines lies 13 km to the north and has less 5G (25%).

Only one mast carries all four networks.
