- LTE is data-only technology and VoLTE is voice-only
technology. Select the correct answer using the code given below.
Explanation
The correct answer is "Neither 1 nor 2" because LTE (Long-Term Evolution) is a standard for wireless broadband communication that supports both voice and data services, although it is primarily considered as a 4G technology. VoLTE (Voice over LTE) is a specific technology that allows voice calls to be made over the LTE network, improving call quality and enabling simultaneous voice and data services. Thus, both statements in the question misrepresent the fundamental capabilities of LTE and VoLTE.
