The Snapdragon 810 processor from Qualcomm Technologies now supports LTE Category 9 Carrier Aggregation connectivity. Speeds of up to 450Mb/s over three 20MHz LTE carriers have been demonstrated by the processor, which integrates a next-gen LTE-Advanced modem. 

The processor, which features a 64-bit multicore CPU, also supports aggregation across FDD and TDD carriers. The Category 9 support enables faster downloads, quicker application performance and improved power efficiency.

Qualcomm Technologies’ LTE-Advanced modem is backwards compatible with all major cellular standards and technologies supported by 4G LTE including GSM/EDGE, CDMA1x/EVDO, TD-SCDMA and WCDMA/HSPA+. The Snapdragon 810 processor with LTE Category 9 support will be available in early 2015.

“Qualcomm Technologies continues to be a leader in the mobile industry with commercialisation of the world’s leading modem technology, delivering fast and reliable cellular data connectivity solutions. This provides speedy application performance and feature richness across greater coverage areas enabled by LTE Category 9 connectivity,” commented Alex Katouzian, Senior Vice President, Product Management, Qualcomm Technologies. “With powerful processors like the Snapdragon 810, we look forward to continuing to drive LTE innovation in the high tier to ensure exceptional user experiences as mobile broadband demand grows.”
