LTE-A Pro modules

How does LTE achieve 1Gbps speed?

The technology enabling the data super highway(where passenger = data)

The use-cases for LTE-Advanced Pro

Carrier Aggregationis like adding a highway

Unlicensed Bandis like moving some traffic to parallel service roads

4x4 MIMOis like adding a highway on top of a highway

Gigabit LTE speed is achieved by combining all these technologies.

FACTS about the world’s first LTE-A Pro modules

LTE-Advanced Pro The last 4G technology jump before 5G

For this example, think of baseline LTE technology as a single highway with standard size cars traveling on it.

faster downlink speeds110x

faster uplink speeds13x

QAMspeed boost14x

Additional speed boost on unlicensed bands

Ability to set up local private networks

Enables public safety networks(i.e. FirstNet™, ESN, PC STORM, ASTRID)
