Vodafone Idea launches TurboNet 4G

Vodafone Idea today announced the launch of TurboNet 4G in select cities of UP (West), Rajasthan and Rest of Bengal markets where it has successfully integrated the network.

The launch of TurboNet 4G follows successful consolidation of its radio network integration and the deployment of new age technologies such as Dynamic Spectrum Re-farming (DSR), Spectrum Re-farming, M-MIMO, L900, TDD and Small Cells to further boost network capacity and coverage across large parts of the country.

According to Vishant Vora, Chief Technology Officer, Vodafone Idea “With the integration of two strong networks in many markets, Vodafone Idea is becoming a higher powered, super charged 4G network on the back of larger number of sites, deployment of future fit technologies and greater spectrum allocation. TurboNet truly defines the reinvented 4G network which promises to deliver wider coverage, increased capacity, turbo speeds and superior customer experience.”

Vodafone Idea’s TurboNet 4G will soon be rolled out across the country over the next few months, in a phased manner.

Vodafone Idea’s network integration exercise is continuing at a rapid pace with 72% of districts in India already consolidated. 4G speeds have improved by more than 50% in consolidated circles as the company continues to move at a rapid pace on a cluster-by-cluster approach in the remaining circles.

To integrate and optimize the network across markets, seamlessly, war rooms have been set-up at national and circle levels to monitor and manage network performance on a real time basis led by a 24/7 functioning world-class SNOC in Pune.
