Ericsson was awarded a AUD1 billion (US$1.1 billion) contract to build and operate a 2.3GHz fixed-wireless network using LTE technology, as part of the Australian government’s National Broadband Network project.
The network will deliver theoretical peak download speeds of 12Mb/s and upload speeds of 1Mb/s to subscribers in rural Australia, marking a “significant” improvement compared to existing broadband services.
