Swisscom Begins LTE Pilot Network

Swisscom kicked off an LTE pilot network in Davos, the first of seven tourist regions in Switzerland to be equipped with the technology. A further six regions will follow by the beginning of December. The carrier's full commercial LTE rollout is dependant of the issuing of new licences for mobile frequencies, which is expected to occur in spring 2012. In parallel, Swisscom will be expanding the current HSPA+ network to 42 Mbps. http://www.swisscom.com
