Verizon Wireless Brings the Power of Its 4G LTE Network to Findlay and Tiffin, Ohio on December 15
FINDLAY, Ohio, Nov. 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Wireless today announced it is bringing the world's first large-scale 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) network to Findlay and Tiffin on Dec. 15. As of Nov. 17, Verizon Wireless' 4G LTE network is available in more than 175 markets across the country and supports 16 4G LTE-enabled devices, including the new DROID RAZR(TM) by Motorola (available Nov. 11) and HTC Rezound(TM) (available Nov. 14).
When Verizon Wireless turns on its 4G LTE network in the area on Dec. 15, residents in Findlay, Tiffin, Fostoria, Arcadia East and Carey with 4G LTE devices will be able to take advantage of the nation's fastest 4G network with speeds up to 10 times faster than Verizon Wireless' 3G network.
"The speed and connectivity provided by our 4G LTE network is revolutionizing the way our customers communicate," said Mark Frazier, president-Ohio/Pennsylvania/West Virginia Region.
Coverage and Speed
Since its launch on Dec. 5, 2010, Verizon Wireless' 4G LTE network has won numerous technology and consumer choice awards. In real-world, fully loaded network environments, Verizon Wireless 4G LTE customers in the area should experience average data rates of 5 to 12 megabits per second (Mbps) on the downlink and 2 to 5 Mbps on the uplink.
Extending Reliability
As the first wireless company in the world to broadly deploy a large-scale 4G LTE network, Verizon Wireless is committed to building its 4G LTE network with the same performance and reliability for which it has long been recognized. Verizon Wireless' consistent focus on reliability is based on rigid engineering standards and a disciplined deployment approach year after year. The company's 700 MHz spectrum gives Verizon Wireless specific advantages with 4G LTE, including a contiguous, nationwide network license.
