Clear Mobitel (CM), which recently ran the first live UK consumer trial of superfast 4G ( Long Term Evolution - LTE ) based Mobile Broadband services over the 800MHz Digital Dividend wireless radio spectrum band in Cornwall (here), has officially been granted a licence by Ofcom to operate the same service over 2600MHz in Jersey.

We note that Clear Mobitel initially achieved a recommendation of allocation in the 2600MHz band to operate a 4G LTE network from the Jersey Competition and Regulatory Authority (JCRA) in 2009.



As it stands, Clear Mobitel plans to begin work on the new network in the late autumn 2010, which will trial state-of-the-art 4G LTE devices that it designs and manufactures itself, to connect customers with a high speed Mobile Broadband network in Jersey.
