Sky Brasil expands 4G coverage to 85 cities
Brazilian satellite pay-TV company Sky Brasil, part of the DirecTV group, has expanded its 4G LTE coverage to 85 municipalities and 150,000 subscribers nationwide, the company said in a release.
The latest locality to be hooked up to 4G LTE was Santana, located in the northern state of Amapá. 4G is now active in 20 states and the federal district Brasília, according to the company.
Whilst it is mostly a satellite television firm, Sky's 4G relies on fixed telecoms networks, being offered through plug-and-play TD-LTE Wi-Fi modems.
According to the latest data from telecoms regulator Anatel, the company had 0.63% of the local fixed broadband market at end-March.
The local leader is the América Móvil group and its subsidiaries NET, Claroand Embratel.
