TELUS to shut down its CDMA network in 2015

October 28, 2013 10:04 PM

Engineering advances and what was once progressed comes to be out of date. Such is the destiny of CDMA.

 

In the course of recent years, TELUS has contributed millions, if not billions of dollars into upgrading their HSPA+ and LTE systems, and doesn't even record the now-old fashioned CDMA organize on its scope map. Also now they're set to start closing it down.

 

Consistent with an interior doc we accepted, "CDMA innovation is arriving at the closure of its administration life," and TELUS will begin a "CDMA Migration Campaign" to exchange clients off this old engineering. Walk 31, 2014 is when "TELUS will be suspending EVDO information administration on the CDMA organize in all of BC and AB (prohibiting Edmonton and Calgary)." There's no sign of what number of remote clients are as of now utilizing CDMA gadgets, however "to guarantee their administration is not disturbed," TELUS will be sending a letter to them offering an overhaul to a 4g HSPA+ good unit.

 

The doc additionally notes that not all Cdma gadgets will be affected and "just clients that have been reached and have offers stacked on record are qualified." Apparently those qualified are found in BC and AB (rejecting Edmonton and Calgary) and either have the wrong PRL code or an unit that can't be redesigned.

 

At last, for a deadline, TELUS says they're "meaning to shutdown the CDMA network in 2015.”
