Google Inc. has been putting together a massive cable network that could provide customers around the world with telecommunications services ranging from broadband Internet to home and mobile phones.

Google has reportedly approached the Federal Communications Commission recently about obtaining wireless spectrum, the base upon which mobile phone networks are built, in the U.S. agency’s next auction, expected in 2009. That could be the target date for Google to make a big splash with its full mobile phone, a la Apple, analysts say.
