Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for split transport control protocol (TCP) flow control management in a cellular broadband network. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for split TCP flow control management in a cellular broadband network is provided. The method includes first determining a context for a packet received as part of a data flow in a base station of a cellular broadband network and then selecting either an end-to-end TCP connection or a split TCP connection to support the data flow. Thereafter, the data flow is routed using the selected connection.
