Cox Trials Voice and Video over LTE

Cox Communications announced today that it has successfully completed trials of voice and high-definition video over LTE, the first clear sign that the company is moving toward deploying the 4G technology.

The 4G trials were conducted in Phoenix and San Diego, utilizing both 700 MHz and AWS spectrum. Cox collaborated with Alcatel-Lucent and Huawei to test wireless services and applications.

As you may remember, Cox has focused its recent efforts on deploying wireless services using the 3G CDMA EVDO standard in three test markets: Hampton Roads, Va., Orange County, Calif. and Omaha, Nebraska. Cox is leveraging Sprint’s CDMA network in order to accomplish the task. When Cox launches its own network, Sprint will be one of its roaming partners.
