LTE-Advanced

LTE-A is the next step in wireless communications technology. Faster and more reliable than LTE, LTE-Advanced uses ultra-fast radio frequencies designed to provide blazing fast downloads and less buffering.
Quite simply, LTE-Advanced is the fastest and most reliable network yet.

VoLTE - High Definition Calling

VoLTE (Voice over LTE) is the next evolution in Wireless calling. VoLTE allows users with a compatible device to place and receive calls over the Tbaytel and Rogers LTE network instead of using the traditional 3G HSPA voice network. Before VoLTE, only data was transmitted over the LTE network, and voice calls were carried over the HSPA network.
