NSN Sets Record LTE Speed of 1.6 Gbps

Nokia Siemens Networks has achieved a world record TD-LTE throughput speed of 1.6 Gbps. In the demonstration, the company used its commercial Flexi Multiradio 10 Base Station to receive and send data in simultaneous downlink and uplink connections, reaching an overall speed of 1.6 Gbps. At this speed, a 3 GB high-definition (HD) movie would download in just 24 seconds while over 1.7 GB of data could be uploaded at the same time, all via mobile broadband. This is the company’s fifth straight LTE speed record in the past 6 months.
