SaskTel has expanded its 4G wireless network to the Cypress Hills Provincial Park area.
"Construction of the 4G network is a significant development for SaskTel and its customers in Saskatchewan," Minister responsible for SaskTel Bill Boyd said. "SaskTel 4G wireless coverage is already available to more than 98 per cent of the population."
"Our 4G wireless network delivers increased bandwidth, greater international roaming and a wider selection of wireless devices," SaskTel President and CEO Ron Styles, said. "4G is the new industry standard and will enable SaskTel to make a smooth transition to future generations of wireless technology."
The 4G network provides increased bandwidth with download speeds approximately four times faster than existing speeds (up to 21 megabits per second). It is also compatible with approximately 80 per cent of all networks across the world and international roaming customers will be able to use their SaskTel 4G device on 4G networks anywhere.
SaskTel plans to support the existing CDMA digital network for the foreseeable future to ensure that all wireless customers continue to enjoy a full selection of wireless services that best suit their needs. Customers can choose from a wide range of devices for both the existing CDMA network and the new 4G network.
SaskTel currently offers more than 25 different 4G devices, including smart phones, tablets, mobile Internet sticks and mobile Wi-Fi hotspots, from major manufacturers including Apple, HTC, LG, Nokia, Novatel, RIM and Samsung.
