Gigabit LTE: Global Snapshot – Member Report – October 2021
336 operators have deployed/ launched LTE-Advanced networks in 151 countries/ territories.
Forty-seven operators state they can support UE Cat-16 peak theoretical DL speeds (>750 Mbps) or above.
Thirty-six of those have announced Gigabit (or very near at 998 Mbps) peak theoretical throughput, or better, in the downlink in their deployed/ commercial networks.
Thirteen of them have pockets of LTE network capable of delivering the maximum DL speeds supported by Cat-18 devices, i.e. peak theoretical throughput of up to 1.2 Gbps.
Five of those have announced parts of their network can deliver a maximum rate in its commercial LTE network of between 1.2 Gbps and 1.6 Gbps (Cat-19)
One has announced maximum peak DL speeds in its LTE network over just over 1.7 Gbps (Cat-20).
