Systems from 1998 are still on the register. Local 5G started with Orange in November 2020; Free Mobile followed in December 2020, SFR followed in April 2021. 2021 was the busiest year, with 42 new systems, most of them 5G.
Over the past 12 months ANFR recorded 17 new systems here. Approved additions not yet in service are pending on 5 existing masts, for example Free Mobile (5G 3.5 GHz) at 30 Rue Alfred Musset, Free Mobile (5G 700 MHz) at 43 Rue Pierre Dupont and Free Mobile (5G 700 MHz) at Mont de Faches. 16 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.
On 3.5 GHz, the fastest 5G band: Bouygues Telecom on all 8 masts, Free Mobile on 6 of its 7 masts, SFR on 5 of its 6 masts and Orange on 4 of its 5 masts. 5G is on 100% of masts here, against 83% across Nord towns with five or more masts.
Most antennas sit on rooftops (10 of 16), so heights stay modest; the tallest support is 42 m at 5 avenue du Marechal de Lattre de Tassigny.
Faches-Thumesnil lies 2.4 km to the south-west and has 14 masts declared.
4 supports carry only SFR.
Among the 94 Nord towns with at least five masts, Ronchin ranks 16th by mast count. With 16 masts for 19,787 residents, or 8 per 10,000, it has fewer masts per inhabitant than the median for those towns (9).
At 5 km² with 19,787 residents, the commune is dense enough that most antennas sit on rooftops rather than pylons. It is part of the Métropole Européenne de Lille intercommunal grouping.
10 buildings and 6 pylons carry the commune's antennas.
Figures above cover installations declared to ANFR as in service or technically operational, as of October 2026; approved projects are not counted.
