  • ­­Thanks to the faster speeds of up to 100 Mbit/s you can use all data-intensive services such as video or music streaming in the best quality even on the move.
  • ­With 4G (LTE) significantly more customers can use the mobile Internet simultaneously without compromising on speed.
  • ­The improved response time while surfing enables customers to use new mobile services such as real-time online gaming or video conferencing.
  • ­4G (LTE) offers you more surfing enjoyment with your smartphone or tablet.

Why is the 4G network necessary?

With the new terminal devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.) and the new applications, the demands on the mobile broadband
network are rising.
Increased demand can be met with higher bandwidths. As a result, Swisscom is expanding the mobile network and rolling out the new LTE technology.

 

LTE (Long Term Evolution) is the fourth generation (4G) of mobile phone technology, enabling mobile data and voice communication with transmission speeds of up to 100 Mbit/s.
