LTE Router with Bridge mode

flems

Hi 

I need a 4G LTE modem. It will need to support Bridge mode, as I will continue to use existing Router and accesspoint. 

I am looking 3 these 3 options:
LTE3301-M209. 
- Pro: Pricepoint, Bridge mode mentioned in datasheet 
- Con: Only 100mbit Ethernet, 150mbit max LTE
LTE4506-M606: 
- Pro. Pricepoint. 1gbit Ethernet, 300 mbit max LTE
- Con. Bridge mode not mentioned anywhere, except for in user guide.
LTE7460-M608 
- Pro. 1gbit Ethernet, 300 mbit max LTE, Bridge mode mentioned in datasheet 
- Con: Hefty pricepoint.

My main question is really if there is any difference in the Bridge support between the 3? I lean towards 4506-M606, but are concerned about the lack of Bridge support mentioned on the product pages

Hi Flems,

 

For example, if your location is suburban, I suppose LTE 7460 will be better choice. You can refer to applications/specifications of these devices on website and then choose the one is good for you.

Hi,

All of three devices are support bridge mode. But I think you need check your environment/location etc first and then select which one is better for you.
