New: Free Mobile (4G) at Metro_arts et Metiers_l3_l11 and SFR (4G and 5G, including 5G at 3.5 GHz). 14 Bouygues Telecom 5G transmitters are listed as technically operational — installed, but not yet declared commercially in service.

2014 was the busiest year, with 47 new systems, most of them 4G. Bouygues Telecom switched on the first 5G here in January 2021; Orange followed in March 2021, SFR followed in March 2021. The oldest transmitter still listed here goes back to 1996.

32 of the 39 masts are rooftop-mounted. The tallest support is 55 m at 61 rue des Archives (building). The median height of measured supports is 28 m.

By mast count, Paris 03 Temple is 21st of the 21 Paris towns that have five or more.

3.5 GHz 5G is declared by Free Mobile on 8 of its 14 masts, Bouygues Telecom on 6 of its 12 masts, Orange on 5 of its 11 masts and SFR on 5 of its 10 masts. 54% of the town's masts carry 5G, fewer than across Paris towns with five or more masts (66%).

1.5 km to the south-west, neighbouring Paris has 2,436 masts, more than here.

At 1 km² with 32,179 residents, the commune is dense enough that most antennas sit on rooftops rather than pylons.
