Mexico Tests 700MHz LTE for National Broadband with ALU

Alcatel-Lucent is working with government of Mexico to trial LTE running in 700 MHz APT spectrum as the basis for a new national wholesale ultra-broadband mobile network initiative.


The "Red Compartida Project" aims to provide a 4G LTE mobile broadband wholesale offering service in the Digital Dividend spectrum for both existing services providers and licensed tenant operators.

The trial in the city of Acapulco uses Alcatel-Lucent’s LTE express solution for rates up to 120 Mbps and the company's latest Packet Microwave Radio solution as backhaul.
