Telstra's LANES wins international award
Telstra’s LANES (LTE Advanced Network) has been awarded the ‘Broadband for all: Outstanding LTE Contribution’ award at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. LANES harnesses Telstra’s carrier assets by providing a capability for a dedicated ‘lane’, exclusively for the police and emergency services. But if congestion occurs on that dedicated PPDR (Public Protection and Disaster Relief) spectrum, LANES has the capacity to scale up and get priority on the commercial spectrum allocation available on the Telstra mobile network. Last November, during the G20 meetings in Brisbane, Telstra demonstrated the capability in what it said was a world first.
