Bharti Airtel said it has deployed 4G advanced technology in Bengaluru that will allow the telecom major to offer speeds of up to 135 Mbps on 4G network.
"The deployment will result in a superior 4G experience for Airtel customers through considerably faster data speeds and better coverage - indoors and outdoors. Customers with mobile devices that support 4G Advanced will be able to enjoy 4G data speeds of up to 135 Mbps," it said in a statement.
Airtel had launched its 4G services in Bengaluru in 2012 on the 2300 Mhz band using the TD LTE standard and recently added capacity on the 1800 Mhz band using FD LTE.
With today's rollout, Bengaluru is among the few cities globally to have high speed data services over 4G Advanced.
