In the fast-paced rhythm of city life, every second counts for 1O1O customers. Whether handling critical business communications or enjoying a moment of high-quality audiovisual entertainment, a stable network connection is indispensable.
To provide a superior 5G experience, 1O1O is actively rolling out network upgrades across MTR lines, introducing the 3.3GHz and 3.5GHz "5G Golden Spectrum." We plan to upgrade a total of 24 major MTR stations, with deployment already completed at several core stations. This ensures that even on crowded platforms and concourses, you can enjoy a network as fluid and exclusive as a private line.
Why Choose 1O1O 5G? Decoding the "Golden Spectrum" Advantage
For users seeking ultimate network performance, spectrum resources define the limits of the experience.
The 3.3GHz and 3.5GHz bands adopted by 1O1O are hailed as the "Golden Spectrum" of the 5G era. These bands possess the physical characteristics of High Bandwidth and High Capacity. This means that even during peak commuting hours, when thousands of passengers are accessing the network simultaneously, 1O1O’s network provides ample data channels, effectively resolving network congestion.
This is the key reason why 1O1O is regarded as the preferred network operator for high-end business professionals and multimedia enthusiasts—we provide not just connectivity, but a priority experience without obstruction.
