Overview
Overview
The FlexModule Mini LTEA (CAT 6) Module turns a Balance 20X, 380X or 580X into a cellular-capable router. A single embedded LTE-Advanced modem gives the site a 4G WAN that can run as automatic failover for fixed broadband or as an always-on link bonded with other WANs using SpeedFusion.
Redundant SIM slots let a second carrier SIM take over if the first network has problems, and two SMA connectors take external antennas for the best signal on site. Antennas are sold separately so you can pick the right model for the installation.
Key highlights
- 1x embedded LTE-Advanced CAT-6 modem
- Up to 300 Mbps down / 50 Mbps up
- Redundant SIM slots
- 2x SMA cellular antenna connectors
- Instant cellular failover or bonded WAN
- Fits the FlexModule Mini bay
- Antennas not included
Recommended for
- Branch failover — Keep tills, VoIP and VPNs online when the fixed line drops.
- Rapid deployment — Bring a new site online on 4G before fixed broadband is installed.
- SpeedFusion bonding — Combine cellular with wired WANs for a more resilient tunnel.
- Dual-carrier resilience — Use the redundant SIM slots to switch networks if coverage degrades.
