The System Identification (SID) List Last Updated: 8/2010 1 Table of Contents 1.0 INTRODUCTION .................................................................................................. 3 2.0 SID List 0-3999 (US SIDs) .................................................................................... 4 3.0 SID List 4000-9999 (US SIDs) ............................................................................ 36 4.0 SID LIST 10000-89999 (International & U.S.) .................................................... 99 2 1.0 INTRODUCTION Whether the emphasis of operations is to set up a completely isolated, private network or operate fully integrated with the local area network, the first step is to identify the local area network’s parameters so the operator can properly setup. The system identification number, or SID parameter, corresponds to a service provider and the specific region of operation. The SID is transmitted OTA by the base station and is the best way to identify active service providers within an area of interest (AOI). Knowing the SID’s associated with specific service providers and the areas in which they operate, will enable operators to plan and setup their systems’ configuration as needed based on the mission objectives. When operating in a new AOI, it is always best to survey the area first and assess the networks present in that area. The following is a list of known SID’s in the world, along with the Market in which they are active, and the carrier and frequency channel band associated with the SID. The U.S. SID’s are confirmed, the international ones are not all confirmed. Due to the dynamic nature of the world’s wireless communications, the following is not an absolute or complete list of SID’s operating in the world, but may serve as a useful guide or reference during setup and operations. 3 2.0 SID List 0-3999 (US SIDs) SID Market Band Carrier 00001 CHICAGO IL A AT&T 00002 LOS ANGELES CA B Verizon Cellular 00003 BUFFALO NY A AT&T 00004 SAN DIEGO CA B Verizon
