Our network will continue to be compatible with legacy 4G LTE equipment, even as we advance towards 5G LTE.

HORIZON will also be using a self healing combination of wireless microwave and fiber technologies to provide high speed, very low latency transport between our communications towers. The wireless technologies include both licensed 2 Gbps point to point links as well as 10 Gbps millimeter microwave (MMW) point to point communications systems to build a highly resilient mesh network topology. Where available, fiber will be used as a 3rd layer fail over backbone. It is our goal to build and maintain the highest reliability wireless network that will surpass the benefits of traditional fiber networks or coax, while maintaining the ability to expand our network without the need to string wire or fiber across miles of terrain.

is using 4G LTE technology to provide Fixed High Speed Internet access, by deploying 4G LTE-Advanced Software Dined Radio (SDR) equipment by way of Carrier Grade front-haul Remote Radio Heads and LTE Base stations.
