=== EV-DO Rev. B (TIA-856 Revision B) ===
EV-DO Rev. B is a multi-carrier evolution of the Rev. A specification. It maintains the capabilities of EV-DO Rev. A, and provides the following enhancements:
* Higher rates per [[Carrier signal|carrier]] (up to 4.9&nbsp;Mbit/s on the downlink per carrier). Typical deployments are expected to include 2 or 3 carriers for a peak rate of 14.7&nbsp;Mbit/s. Higher rates by bundling multiple channels together enhance the user experience and enable new services such as [[high-definition video|high definition]] [[video streaming]].
* Reduced latency by using [[statistical multiplexing]] across channels—enhances the experience for latency sensitive services such as gaming, video telephony, remote console sessions and web browsing.
* Increased talk-time and standby time
* Reduced interference from the adjacent sectors especially to users at the edge of the cell signal which improves the rates that can be offered by using Hybrid frequency re-use.
* Efficient support for services that have asymmetric download and upload requirements (i.e. different data rates required in each direction) such as file transfers, web browsing, and broadband multimedia content delivery.
