Bharti Airtel, India’s largest telecommunications services provider, has recently rolled out its 4G services in Bangalore in the 1800 MHz spectrum band using the FD LTE technology.

With this, Airtel 4G in the IT capital of India will now operate in dual spectrum bands of 2300 MHz and 1800 MHz, providing enhanced 4G network capacity and a superior mobile broadband experience for customers through better network coverage and data speeds.  

Airtel launched its 4G services in the city in 2012 in the 2300 Mhz band using the TD LTE standard. With today’s launch, Bangalore is among the first few cities in India to enjoy the power of an integrated 4G network using TD and FD carriers.

The Operator has also recently launched its high speed 4G services in Chalakudy, making its service available in 200 towns in the Southen state of Kerala.

Given the explosive growth of mobile data services and content consumed on mobiles, the addition of a second 4G carrier will surely add to the experience of the customers on our network. Airtel has also rolled out the widest 4G network in Karnataka with services now available in 130 towns.
