T-Mobile said that it has signed deals to form two joint ventures ​with Oak Hill Capital and Wren ‌House, expanding its fiber internet business to complement its fast-growing broadband and core wireless base.

T-Mobile and Oak ​Hill will form a joint venture ​to combine two of the private equity ⁠firm's existing fiber portfolio companies, GoNetspeed ​and Greenlight.

T-Mobile expects to invest around $2 billion ​for a 50% stake in the Oak Hill JV after it closes in the first half of ​2027.

The venture with global infrastructure investment ​manager Wren House will include acquisition of i3 ‌Broadband, ⁠a regional fiber internet provider serving parts of Illinois, Missouri and Rhode Island.

Together, the partnerships will ​extend T-Mobile's fiber footprint to ​more ⁠than 1 million additional homes nationwide, supporting its target of 18 million to 19 ⁠million ​broadband customers by 2030, including ​3 million to 4 million on fiber.
