South African customers now have a wider variety on connectivity solutions with Fibre Boyz
Fibre Boyz launched its wireless portfolio through the introduction of several broadband internet packages using Rain's and Cell C's Long-Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) network.
The LTE-A service is an easy to use, SIM card-based technology over a robust network that offers end-users with high throughputs of up to 50Mbps, speeds that are more associated with fibre connections despite it being wireless similar to 4G, 3G and 2G while being more faster and reliable
The LTE+ format was first proposed by NTT DoCoMo of Japan and has been adopted as the international standard. LTE standardization has matured to a state where changes in the specification are limited to corrections and bug fixes. The first commercial services were launched in Sweden and Norway in December 2009 followed by the United States and Japan in 2010. More LTE networks were deployed globally during 2010 as a natural evolution of several 2G and 3G systems, including Global system for mobile communications (GSM) and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) in the 3GPP family as well as CDMA2000 in the 3GPP2 family.
The mobile communication industry and standards organizations have therefore started work on 4G access technologies, such as LTE Advanced.At a workshop in April 2008 in China, 3GPP agreed the plans for work on Long Term Evolution (LTE). A first set of specifications were approved in June 2008. Besides the peak data rate 1 Gb/s as defined by the ITU-R, it also targets faster switching between power states and improved performance at the cell edge. Detailed proposals are being studied within the working groups.
