AT&T today announced plans to complete its HSUPA (High-Speed Uplink Packet Access) network by the middle of the year. The AT&T 3G network now delivers typical downlink speeds ranging between 600 kbps to 1.4 Mbps, as well as faster uplink speeds, ranging from 500 and 800 kbps.
The deployment of HSUPA this year is the next step in the evolution of AT&T's 3G network, with further enhancements and speed boosts expected in the near future.
"Fast wireless broadband is the foundation for a whole range of new and emerging applications that our customers are adopting, including everything from social networking to sending live video and large business files," said Ralph de la Vega, president and CEO for AT&T's wireless unit. "With these aggressive initiatives, we're expanding the scope and the speed of our 3G capabilities, connecting people with their world and enabling more customers to do more with their wireless devices, wherever they may be.
This year's HSUPA deployment will complete the transition of the AT&T 3G network to High Speed Packet Access (HSPA) standards.
