Zyxel LTE7240-M403 LTE Cellular Network Outdoor Router

The Zyxel LTE7240-M403 4G LTE Outdoor Router comes with what the critical feature, “the second WAN”, needs – flexible routing mode with both bridge and router functions, high-gain antenna for better signal and performance as well as robust IP56 outdoor hardware designed for harsh environments. No matter you have a router device or not, the LTE7240-M403 can be easily deployed and integrated into your existing environment. You can set LTE as your main connection or use LTE as a backup when performance of the main connection drops. The LTE7240-M403 is good for any venue like suburban areas, public locations, homes and offices. Enjoy LTE technology with minimum effort with the LTE7240-M403.

As mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets consume more wireless broadband, the crowded bandwidths have become a big issue to operators. Mobile broadband is a better solution than fixed-line broadband for its lower investment and faster deployment. However, since fixed lines have been the major broadband infrastructure in most places of the world for a long time, people are already using fixed lines for broadband Internet connection in most cases. Migrating from fixed lines to mobile broadband may need extensive evaluation, however adding mobile broadband as a backup for better performance or stability could be an easier decision.

Embedded bridge/router mode adapts to all kinds of devices/gateways
For better network integration, Zyxel embeds both bridge and router modes into the LTE7240-M403. While users can take advantage of the built-in routing functions in all typical applications, the bridge mode is designed to work with users’ existing or preferred devices such as high-end Wi-Fi Access Points, Small Business Gateways or Enterprise Gateways. With the two built-in modes, the LTE7240-M403 can be easily integrated with all kinds of devices/gateways.

Built-In multi-band antenna
Zyxel’s LTE7240-M403 4G LTE Outdoor Router provides multi-band embedded antennas of up to 7 dBi that work effectively in outdoor environments. The outdoor-friendly design makes it possible to work in near non-line-of-sight conditions where desirable signal strength was difficult to achieve.

Non-stop connectivity with LTE 2nd WAN for fail-over
Multi-WAN fail-over relieves the risk of network outage caused by dependence on single-WAN technology. Even better, LTE is wireless so you can get the second WAN without an additional cabling plan. As long as the gateway supports “multi-WAN fail-over”, you can just connect the Zyxel LTE7240-M403 to the existing gateway and set LTE as the fail-over WAN.

Software upgrades over-the-air
Through the LTE radio interface, the Zyxel LTE7240-M403 supports TR-069 has full over-the-air configuration and software upgrade capability through events triggered by the operators.
