EV-DO Rev. A allows Verizon Wireless to provide higher network transmission speeds with lower latency to ensure the highest quality user experiences. Nortel's EV-DO Rev. A solution is capable of providing peak data rates of up to 3.1 Mbps on the forward link (information flowing from the cellular base station to the subscriber) and up to 1.8 Mbps on the reverse link (information flowing from the subscriber back to the cellular base station). Nortel has been a major contributor to the development of 1xEV-DO Rev 0 and Rev. A standards in 3GPP2 and proposed key concepts to the standards for improving the transmission capabilities.
