VodafoneUK says it carries ~10,000TB of 4G traffic a month
- pyvpx 10y agoI'm curious what is the average revenue per GB of 4G (or mobile data in general). That the entirety of their 4G network bandwidth usage is about 30Gbps (averaged over the month) is slightly surprising to a not-mobile network engineer such as myself.
- SuperGent 10y agoIn the UK Vodaphone offered free 1GB of 4G in september to me and I assume other subscribers. I wonder if that was to help boost these numbers, or was just marketing.
- aexaey 10y ago1GB is pretty close to the average it seems: 65,110,000 [1] * 90% [2] * 18.2% [3] = 10665018 subscribers 10PB / 10665018 = 937MB per subscriber per month.

- mdrzn 10y agoVodafone and other carriers also offer some all-you-can-eat plan in the UK, so I guess it's an higher avg with less subscribers. Also, I hate that the same carriers in other EU countries don't offer the same plans.
