Sprint LTE Plus Launches In NYC

If you happen to live in New York City, then you would be pleased to hear that Sprint has just rolled out its LTE Plus over in the Big Apple. Basically, Sprint customers in that part of the country will now be able to experience a faster and more reliable cellular signal. This would also make Sprint’s LTE Plus available across 191 markets in the US, and Sprint claims that they now deliver the fastest 4G LTE download speeds in New York City.

Just how fast is fast? Well, according to Sprint, select devices will be able to take advantage of speeds that would go beyond the 100Mbps mark, now how about that? Achieving this can be done via two-channel carrier aggregation which will then widen its LTE pipelines in the city, and Sprint’s smart antenna system that makes use of a technology known as beamforming, would allow the sending out to be more focused.

. John Saw, Sprint CTO, shared, “Our 2.5GHz spectrum excels at moving high volumes of data at very fast speeds. And our deep 2.5GHz holdings give us more capacity than any other carrier in the U.S. This is a tremendous advantage, allowing us to keep adding the capacity and speed needed to serve New Yorker’s demand for data now and well into the future.” Now going about stuff like this is surely much better than churning out offensive video ads.
