We hurry to please our customers and “please” our competitors: today MegaFon launched the network of the latest LTE-Advanced standard. It can be called 4G + standard.
The launch was not on paper, the new network is available now. This is the world's first operating network standard LTE-Advanced, providing a record transfer rate of up to 300 Mbps. Moreover, the cost of services in it is the same as in 3G and 4G networks, that is, the price for subscribers will not change at all.
At the moment, the 4G + network from MegaFon covers the Garden Ring.
During 2014, the entire area inside the Moscow Ring Road will enter the network coverage area. The future plans of the company include covering the largest cities of the Russian Federation.

To take full advantage of MegaFon's ultra-fast mobile Internet network, you can purchase the latest MegaFon Space router (R300-1). It is able to provide access to the 4G + network simultaneously for 32 devices.


The cost of the router is 11,990 rubles when the Internet XL option is activated for a period of one month. At the moment, MegaFon Space is available in the online store
moscow.shop.megafon.ru and in the main stores of MegaFon in Moscow at the addresses:
• Tverskaya St., 17
• 1st Tverskaya-Yamskaya ul, 6
• Red Square, 3 (GUM)

We carried out the first test launch of the standard during the Olympics in Sochi. Testing at such high loads showed the highest reliability of the Huawei equipment, on which the new network is built. Mobile Internet 4G + from MegaFon operates in the 2600 MHz band. In addition, at present our frequency resource allows us to provide average and peak speeds 4 times higher than other operators.

What do such speeds give, and how can 4G + change our future?
During the ceremonial launch, held this week at Digital October, the most “typical” scenario of using such a channel - video downloading was demonstrated. The 1.45 Gb file was downloaded in just over a minute.

Another illustrative example was the video wall consisting of 16 monitors, to which 16 different online video streams were displayed:

In addition to high peak speeds (up to 300 Mbps / s), LTE-A increases average speeds for all subscribers with compatible devices. Those. this is potentially needed by all subscribers. The real scenarios are the same - watching streaming HD-Video, accessing files, sharing videos on social networks, games.

We are also confident that our network will give a new impetus to the development of medicine, education, services of city and municipal services, security monitoring systems, mobile art exhibitions, picnics, creative coworking, etc. After all, now, in order to have high-speed Internet it is not at all necessary to be “tied” to office (or home) Wi-Fi.
