What is band 28 used for?
LTE-band 28 (700 MHz) Frequency bands are assigned to telecommunication companies to offer 2G, 3G, and 4G services in the country.
What frequency is LTE 28?
700 MHz
Overview. The 3GPP B28 (700 MHz) LTE band is the seventh most popular band used by public mobile operators for LTE network deployments.

What LTE bands are used in Australia?
Australia is currently using these LTE bands (LTE bandmask in brackets): 2100MHz (B1) FDD (0000000000000001) – Telstra, Optus, Vodafone. 1800MHz (B3) FDD (0000000000000004) – Telstra, Optus, Vodafone. 850MHz (B5) FDD (0000000000000010) – Vodafone.
What is band 28 in 4G LTE?
3GPP 4G LTE Logo. Band 28 is an LTE operating frequency Band. LTE is designed to work across a number of frequency bands – E-UTRA operating bands- currently ranging from 450 MHz up to 3.8GHz. The available bandwidths are also flexible starting with 1.4 MHz up to 20 MHz with Carrier Aggregation allowing use of wider multiples.
How many carrier aggregation configurations are recorded for band 28 LTE?
LTE-A or LTE-Advanced Pro technologies can be deployed using carrier aggregation to combine various bandwidths of band 28 with other carriers. The chart below depicts deployed 4G LTE channel bandwidths for this frequency band. There are 41 CA configurations recorded for this LTE frequency band.
In combination with other frequency bands (carrier aggregation with 800, 900, 1500 MHz, etc.), the data rates then increase rapidly, so that band 28 is an ideal complement to the already existing radio spectrum.
Why choose 700 MHz LTE over B28?
700 MHz LTE is a popular choice due to availability of digital-dividend spectrum, and unmatched propagation characteristics permitting wide area coverage in regional and rural environments, and excellent in-building coverage. Due to its large wavelength, B28 does not easily support Massive MIMO and beamforming technologies.
