Post by: wiredlife on February 21, 2015, 05:18:11 PM

Telecom Spectrum in the 800 Mhz band has been efficient in the CDMA, EVDO Broadband and now Mobile Broadband / 4G LTE.

• 800 Mhz is very well suited for deploying 4G LTE Networks - High Coverage Area
• We have quite a few 4G deployments across the globe powered by 800 Mhz band
• The 800 Mhz band has very high propagation characteristics, suitable for countries like India with concrete jungles
• Well developed Mobile Handset eco-system for the 800 Mhz band, unlike the 2300 Mhz
• Lower Capital Expenditure - Deploy fewer BTS
