While only Airtel has so far launched 4G LTE services in only four cities, devices manufacturers are eagerly preparing to launch devices to cater to this new opportunity.
Olive Telecom has joined hands with Yota, a Russian operator which also sells devices, to bring in TDD LTE (Indian operators are using this technology) based dongles and fixed routers.
Yota Devices sold more than 1 million modems and routers in 2012, representing 6 per cent of the LTE device market - modems and routers.
Last year, Olive Telecom had also joined hands with Israeli vendor Altair Semiconductor to develop products for India's BWA (Broadband Wireless Access) market.
Though Olive Telecom has been tight lipped about its plans, the company told The Mobile Indian that it is in talks with biggest operators in LTE space to bring in devices based on LTE technology.
While, currently the market for TDD LTE devices in India is very small as only Airtel has launched 4G services in four cities, many telecos are likely to launch their services in this year itself.
