Teltonika have launched two new WiMAX routers, the RUT425 and RUT435.

If you are looking for a WiMAX LTE Router solution then the Teltonika WiMAX router is worth consideration.

We have tested the new Zalip CDG561WE embedded HSPA+ 3G router today using a standard 3 mobile broadband SIM card and using www.speedtest.net we got a download speed of 11.26Mbps and an upload speed of 1.54Mps – we were very impressed.

I tested our own ADSL broadband service and only got 5.12Mbps download speed and a measly 412kbps upload speed.  HSPA+ seems to be the way to go.

We just thought you might be interesed.

The 3G Router Store now stocks a range of LTE Router products offering high speed mobile broadband on networks supporting LTE services such as HSPA+.

LTE (Long Term Evolution) is the name given to the networks and hardware for th next generation of high speed mobile broadband internet access services.  HSPA+ networks are starting to be rolled out in the UK with HSPA+ networks available in Wales offering download speeds up to 14Mbps when used with a compatible HSPA+ Router.

HSPA+, LTE and 4G all mean pretty much the same thing so you can search for any of these terms on Google when researching your choice of 4G Router, LTE Router or HSPA+ Router and you will find that the products you find will be the same such as the Globesurfer III+, Zalip CDG561WE and the Vololink VA125 and VA126 LTE, 4G, HSPA + Routers.

The D2376 is a new handheld GSM and 3G frequency network signal analyser which is ideal to determine the best networks for the deployment of GSM Gateways and 3G Routers and other GSM and 3G devices.

 The D2376 radio signal analysers, for use with GSM, GPRS and 3G radio networks, can perform a radio survey to provide a list of available cells in the local area and their signal strengths, for you to select the best network for your installation.

The D2376 provides information such as network name and code, base station ID, Bse Station frequency (900, 1800 or 2100Mhz), signal strength in % and dBi and can be set to search for both GSM and 3G networks or can be set to GSM only or 3G only for convenience.

This is a great handheld GSM and 3G network signal tester to help with fault finding and to provide the best choice of 3G network for your location.

The D2376 Handheld 3G Signal Analyser has a detachable antenna with a standard SMA connection so it can be connected to different antennas to help establish the best performing 3G antenna for your application and environment.

The 3G Router Store announced today that it’s first shipment of the Zalip CDG561WE will arrive during August 2011.  The Zalip HSPA+ Router will compliment the growing range of LTE Router products being stocked by the UK’s leading supplier of 3G  and 4G routers.  Other HSPA+ routers currently in stock are the Vololink VA125 and the Vololink VA126.

LTE (Long Term Evolution) is the next generation of Mobile Broadband Internet services which will provide high speed mobile broadband with 3 Mobile already advising customers of a 40% increase in download speeds when uing LTE Modems with their 3G network.

Most of the UK is currently serviced by 3G HSPA networks with download speeds up to 7.2Mpbs which is suitable for most M2M and remote monitoring and management applications so there will still be a huge demand for 3G networks and 3G routers.  LTE Neworks offering very high speed internet services will initially be aimed at home and business users as a real alternative to traditional fixed line broadband services such as ADSL and SDSL.

What is LTE ?

To help answer the question “What is LTE ?” we have compiled the following information.  LTE (Long Term Evolution) is the project name of a new high performance air interface for cellular mobile communication systems. It is the last step toward the 4th generation (4G) of radio technologies designed to increase the capacity and speed of mobile telephone networks.  LTE is commonly known as 4G so you may have started to hear about the latest 4G phones, 4G Mobiles, 4G modems and even 4G Routers.

LTE will support typical download speeds of 100Mbps and upload speeds of 50Mbps, however the initial LTE products including LTE mobile Phones, LTE Smartphones and LTE Routers will typically support either 21Mbps or 42Mbps, but these will be subject to the availability of LTE networks.

When will LTE be available in the UK?

O2 and Huawei have just finished trials of an 4G Mobile Network LTE service in Slough where they reached download speeds of 150Mbps.  However, the UK mobile phone operators will need to move quickly to roll out 4G LTE services becuase acording to a recent Financial Times article, Hong Kong based PCCW is looking to roll out an LTE network in the UK through its UK subsidiary UK Broadband.  PCCW recently aquired all the UK WiMax licenses and plans to operate its 4G network using the 3.5GHz and 3.6GHz frequencies for LTE.

LTE Hardware

There are a growing number of 4G phones available, but with no usable network they will not live up to their performance claims in the UK and there are also a growing number of other 4G business hardware solutions such as 4G Routers.  A good example is the Vololink VA126 LTE router which can provide download speeds up to 42Mbps and is available to buy now, which is great if you live in one of the LTE network trial areas but we imagine that as LTE services are rolled out during 2011 and 2012 in the UK then products such as the Vololink and Zalip HSPA+ routers that can take advantage of the high speed LTE mobile broadband networks will become more popular and start to replace the 3G router products currently being used for IP CCTV and M2M remote monitoring and management applications.

In summary, the answer to the question “What is LTE ?” is that LTE is high speed mobile broadband offering potentially faster sdownload speeds than traditional wired broadband services for use with LTE mobile phone handsets and other mobile broadband equipment such as LTE Routers and LTE Modems.

The Vololink range of 3G Routers, 4G Routers and LTE Routers are now available in the UK from the 3G Router Store from Westlake Communications.

The available range initially includes the Vololink VA126, Vololink VA125 and the Vololink VA122 Embedded HSPA 3G Routers which will work with all 3G mobile broadband SIM cards from the leading networks including Vodafone, Orange, T-Mobile, Everything Everywhere, O2, 3 Mobile ( three ) and are also suitable for use with fixed IP SIM cards available from specialist network providers.

The Vololink 3G routers are ideal for a variety of applications including 3G Wireless Broadband Backup of ADSL Bradband services, remote, temporary or mobile offices, disaster recovery and M2M (Machine to Machine) applications including IP CCTV, Digital Signage and remote monitoring and management.  3G Routers are also being used as a back up for VoIP applications such as SIP Trunking and Hosted Telephony.
