3G HSPA+ Upgrade for Swisscom
3G HSPA+ Upgrade for Swisscom
7th September , 2009
Europe : Swisscom is ready to roll out HSPA+ services to its customers in Switzerland. Swisscom upgraded its 3G wireless network to HSPA ( 14.4Mbps ) in November 2008 and the HSPA+ upgrade will now see speeds of up to 28.8 Mbps.
Swisscom will turn-on the HSPA+ network in October this year targeting high population areas in the first instance. Swisscom has planned to invest heavily in the roll out of HSPA+ in the near future.
The timing of the introduction of HSPA+ is appropriate as Swisscom’s mobile data and mobile internet traffic, over the 3G network, has trebled in the last 12 months.
The growth is predicted to continue as Swisscom’s five million customers find working without the mobile internet more attractive.
