4G (or LTE) is the fourth generation of cellular network connectivity from 206. With 5G still in its early stages, there is plenty of room for growth and full lifecycles for innovations built with 4G IoT modules – most of which are based on 4G’s ‘Standard’ categories, LTE Cat 1 and LTE Cat 4.
The most advanced form of 4G connectivity is LTE Advanced, usually known as LTE-A. This major enhancement of the Long Term Evolution (LTE) standard offers much higher data rates than LTE Standard – LTE-A networks can deliver speeds up to 2Gbps, nearly 14 times faster than LTE Cat 4.
Quectels LTE modules have exceptionally small footprints, can optionally be appointed with multi-receiver GNSS capability for satellite positioning, and are equipped as standard with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology which greatly reduces errors and ensures reliable data speeds.
