Singtel to deploy near-gigabit mobile data speeds
This will be available at selected locations.
Singtel will be launching near-gigabit speeds on its LTE Advanced network at selected high-traffic outdoor locations across the island, starting with Orchard Road.
At 800Mbps, it is Southeast Asia’s fastest gigabit-class LTE mobile data peak speed, delivering up to 60% faster download speeds than prevailing LTE services.
The near-gigabit transmission speeds are achieved by scaling pre-5G technology solutions, 4x4 multiple-input multiple-output (4x4 MIMO) and 256 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), coupled with triple carrier aggregation of spectrum exclusive to Singtel.
