Zyxel LTE7480
On August 10, 2020, Zyxel Networks introduced a street LTE router with enhanced LTE7480 functionality. The device provides business and private households with an internet connection in remote areas. Where there is no reliable cable infrastructure, but there is a cellular signal.
According to the company, due to the pandemic in many global companies, a significant part of the staff has switched to working from home, so they need solutions that use technology to ensure the productivity of their remote employees. One of the main problems faced by companies is the organization of reliable and high-speed connection to the corporate network of employees working from home, but it is very difficult to solve if the employee lives in an area where there is no reliable cable Internet infrastructure.
Providing broadband over a cellular network, the Zyxel router can be deployed and integrated into any existing network infrastructure for August 2020. It can be used as a primary communication channel or as a backup in the event of a drop in the bandwidth of the primary broadband channel to eliminate the risks of losing access to the network, which, given the transfer of most personnel to remote operation in many companies, should be minimized.
The capabilities of the street LTE-A router LTE7480:
- Internet connection at a good speed: LTE7480 uses the LTE Category 12 standard, which provides inbound speeds of up to 600 Mbps by transmitting data using four spatial streams with two subcarriers.
- Antennas with increased gain: LTE7480 is equipped with 4x4 MIMO transmitter antennas with increased signal gain to 8 dBi. A special LTE7480 body design for outdoor use improves coverage and bandwidth even when operating near the line-of-sight boundary of a cell site.
- Simple deployment: LTE7480 supports both bridge mode and router mode, which allows for flexibility in deploying this device; 802.3af/at PoE support eliminates the need for a separate power supply; the IP68 enclosure allows the router to be placed outdoors even in extreme conditions.
- Remote Management - A convenient web interface performs all remote management operations, from configuring configuration settings, monitoring network status, and updating firmware to managing the firewall.
- Continuous connection: The LTE cellular network can be used as an alternative WAN channel without being connected to a second fixed carrier to protect the main WAN channel in a multi-WAN fail-over scheme. If the network has a gateway that supports multiple WAN interfaces (for example, a gateway from the Zyxel USG series), then to protect the WAN connection, you only need to connect Zyxel LTE7480-M804 to it and configure the trunk.
Zyxel LTE7480 LTE router for August 2020 is already available for purchase in electronics stores.
