First Mobile Hotspot to Demonstrate Gigabit LTE
speeds!
Novatel Wireless, Inc. – an Inseego Corp. company (Nasdaq:INSG)
and leading provider of mobile broadband and connected solutions
for the Internet of Things (IoT) – and Keysight Technologies, Inc.
today announced the successful demonstration of 1.2 Gbps downlink
throughput on Novatel Wireless’ next-generation MiFi, an
industry-first Cat 18 LTE mobile hotspot, at Mobile World Congress
Americas in San Francisco.
“Novatel Wireless has a proven history of commercializing
industry firsts. From the first 1G cradle modems for early
handhelds, to 2G/3G PC cards with embedded antennas, followed by
the invention of MiFi mobile hotspots, and the first LTE-U capable
USB modem, it is in our DNA to embrace the challenges that come
with introducing the latest advanced technologies and developing
products that operate on the latest wireless standards,” said
Stephen Sek, CTO for Novatel Wireless. “As mobile broadband
technologies are advancing in both speed and complexity, breaking
through the true Gigabit barrier is a milestone worth noting.
Today, we are pleased to announce that we have achieved the 1.2
Gbps milestone in the development of our next-generation MiFi
platform.”
“This is an important milestone on our path to 5G and we are
excited for this new platform to launch commercially. We have
secured a commitment with a Tier 1 North American service provider
for launch in 2018, and we are in the process of securing
additional commitments from other major providers around the
globe,” noted Steve Linke, VP of Worldwide Sales for Novatel
Wireless.
Using Keysight’s UXM E7515A Wireless Test Sets configured for
three Component Carriers of 20 MHz, 256 QAM and 4x4 MIMO, the
demonstration of 1.2 Gbps downlink data throughput at the physical
layer shows that the maximum throughput possible with Cat 18 can be
achieved with Novatel Wireless’ design.
“Enabling partners like Novatel Wireless to address the
challenges that come with developing leading-edge technology so
that they can be successful in their business is what motivates us.
Time to market and device performance are key elements for our
customers and for Keysight. Both in LTE Advanced Pro as well as in
5G, Keysight is showing that technical leadership combined with
technical expertise, enables market leaders to succeed,” said
Kailash Narayanan, Keysight Technologies Vice President and General
Manager, Wireless Device and Operators.
