LTE Band 40 operates in the 2300 MHz spectrum range, leveraging the Time Division Duplexing (TDD) configuration. The 2300 MHz range strikes an effective balance between network coverage and data capacity, making Band 40 particularly suitable for dense urban areas where high data throughput is essential. This characteristic, combined with the inherent benefits of TDD such as flexible bandwidth allocation, has contributed to its widespread adoption.
B40 is recognised as one of the top-10 most implemented LTE bands globally. Its popularity can be attributed to the effective use of spectrum resources, the scalability it offers to operators for managing traffic, and its performance metrics that cater well to modern data-intensive applications.
