網絡優化

PCCW-HKT最近進行網絡優化，成為了香港第一個結合150Mbps* 4G LTE及1,000Mbps* Wi-Fi網絡的服務供應商，為客戶帶來極速的流動上網體驗。

我們於6月增強了旗下的4G LTE網絡至150Mbps*。客戶無論使用支援150Mbps* 的新裝置或現有的4G LTE 裝置，網絡升級將令其受惠。

於7月初，我們亦於旺角朗豪坊推出香港首個1,000Mbps* Wi-Fi服務。未來我們將會繼續在其他人流暢旺的商場及地點為Wi-Fi網絡進行升級。目前，我們於香港營運一個擁有超過12,000個熱點的Wi-Fi網絡，我們的目標是於2014年內將熱點的數目增加至超過20,000個。
　

* 1,000Mbps及150Mbps是網絡規格，並不直接反映使用網絡或裝置時的速度，而實際速度會顯著地少於網絡規格，並會受流動裝置及多項因素所影響。

Network upgrades

PCCW-HKT is proud to have become Hong Kong’s first service provider offering customers ultra fast mobile experience with the combined 150Mbps* 4G LTE and 1,000Mbps* Wi-Fi network following our network upgrades.

We enhanced our 4G LTE network to 150Mbps* in June. The enhancement will benefit customers who use a new 150Mbps-enabled* device and even those with an existing 4G LTE handset.

In early July, we also rolled out Hong Kong's first 1,000Mbps* Wi-Fi service at Langham Place, Mongkok. Upgrade of Wi-Fi hotspots at other malls and locations with high traffic will follow in future. Currently, we operate an extensive Wi-Fi network with over 12,000 hotspots throughout the city. We aim to increase the number to over 20,000 in 2014.

* 1,000Mbps and 150Mbps are network specifications, which do not directly correlate to speeds achievable using the network or device, as actual speeds are significantly less than the specifications and will be affected by mobile devices and many other factors.
