Verizon Wireless to Deploy LTE 4G Wireless Network

Verizon Wireless revealed their plans to hasten the arrival of Long Term Evolution (LTE) 4G wireless networks. The wireless service provider realized that LTE 4G wireless network is the next big thing in the industry.

The Verizon LTE 4G wireless network will be launched commercially in 2010 with the help of its newly acquired 700 MHz spectrum. The 700 MHz spectrum for the Verizon LTE 4G wireless network covers the entire US, excluding Alaska.

According to the the official press release, Verizon LTE 4G wireless network trials the technology is capable of delivering peak speeds of 50-60 Mbps. The tests are currently being held in Minneapolis, Columbus, Ohio, and northern New Jersey. However, speeds for the Verizon LTE 4G wireless network in the real-world has not yet been determined.

Tests are being held in on uncluttered airwaves but the Verizon LTE 4G wireless network trials show that the technology can offer significantly faster speeds than the existing 3G wireless networks.

The Verizon LTE 4G wireless network will not be limited to populated areas. Verizon plans to deploy this telecommunication technology in rural areas not covered by land-based broadband. The trials for the Verizon LTE 4G wireless network will be expanded this summer in the 700 MHz band.

The major wireless service carrier plans to aggressively deploy the Verizon LTE 4G wireless network throughout its entire network. These plans also extend to places that are not currently covered by the existing Verizon Wireless footprint.

Ericsson and Alcatel-Lucent has been chosen as the primary network vendors for the promising Verizon LTE 4G wireless network. Starent was also named as a packet core vendor for this new wireless technology. Verizon has also chosen Nokia Siemens and Alcatel-Lucent as key suppliers for a new IMS network that will deliver new converged multimedia services.

The Verizon LTE 4G wireless network is the rival of Sprint's WiMAX which also delivers 4G standard speeds. Like the Verizon LTE 4G wireless network, Sprint's WiMAX is also supported by major firms like Intel. AT&T is also expected to roll our its own LTE network while T-Mobile is still establishing its infant 3G network.

The tests are promising but we'll just jhave to wait and see if the Verizon LTE 4G wireless network can change the industry. Tune in to this blog to get more info and news on topics like the Verizon LTE 4G wireless network.

Even as recent as a few years ago, an environmentally conscious consumer could experience difficulty finding a place to accept a phone handset for recycling. This frustrating experience soured many of these well meaning consumers on the process of phone recycling. Today things are radically different. Mobile phone recycling has become the 'in thing' and there are now many phone recycling companies, such as Envirofone and Mazuma Mobile who will give you cash for your old handset, even if it is no longer fully functioning.
