AzQTel has been working with ZTE to develop a plan to migrate the network from WiMAX to the more robust TDD-LTE. The company holds 142 MHz of spectrum in the 3.5 GHz and 3.6 GHz frequency bands, which translate to B42 (3500 MHz) and B43 (3700 MHz) TDD-LTE. During trials in December 2015, AzQTel demonstrated peak data rates of up to 900 Mbps over TDD-LTE. In December 2017 the company announced plans to develop Gigabit TDD LTE-A Pro which it advertises as 'Pre-5G', using 4x4 MIMO and 256QAM.
