Just how fast is it? There’s no hard and fast answer as to how speedy LTE-A is. Theoretical peak download speeds stand at around 300Mbps, whilst standard 4G LTE stands at 150Mbps .
Read moreWhat is difference between LTE and LTE-A?
What are the key differences between LTE & LTE-A and LTE-A Pro? The main aim for LTE-A Pro is to increase the data speeds and bandwidth that are currently available for mobile communications. Data speeds are set to be three times faster than LTE-A (in excess of 3Gbps whereas LTE-A was just 1Gbs) .
Read moreWhy LTE-A is faster?
LTE-A is the closest there is to true 4G speeds, but not quite there. The network can use what is called carrier aggregation, which combines up to 5 signals that let data pass through antennas simultaneously. This allows different carriers to combine the bandwidth signal and provide faster speeds.
Read moreWhich is better LTE-A or LTE?
The most important thing to know is that LTE-A promises to deliver true 4G speeds, unlike current LTE networks . You can expect the real-world speed of LTE-A to be two to three times faster than today’s LTE. It should also be robust, with fewer dropped connections as you move around.21 Oca 2014
