Aruba Networking USB LTE Modem R8F34A for Access Points and Gateways LTE Cat 12 HPE

The HPE Aruba Networking USB LTE Modem is built for enterprises that need fast WAN uplinks at small offices, home offices, branches and pop-up locations. The modem plugs directly into a supported HPE Aruba Networking access point or gateway. In most carrier environments it needs no configuration, so there is no third-party compatibility testing and no separate procurement path. Performance and coverage: - LTE Cat 12 reaches up to 480 Mbps download and 150 Mbps upload on FDD networks, and up to 430/90 Mbps on TDD. - 2- and 3-carrier downlink aggregation is supported. - The band list includes the FDD bands used by major US carriers (B2, B4, B5, B12, B13, B14, B25, B26, B30, B66) alongside global FDD, TDD and WCDMA bands. - The modem is carrier certified for AT&T and Verizon and holds PTCRB, FCC/ISED and RED approvals. - Built-in GNSS supports GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo and QZSS. Compatibility spans HPE Aruba Networking 300, 500, 600 and 700 series campus and remote APs, the 9004, 9012, 9106 and 7000 Series SD-Branch gateways, and the EC-10104, EC-XS, EC-10106, EC-10108 and EC-S-P EdgeConnect SD-WAN gateways. It works in on-premises AP-only or controller deployments as well as cloud-managed designs, so the modem stays usable if your architecture changes. The body measures 100 x 50 x 20 mm and weighs 78 g, with two internal antennas (main and diversity). A dual-colour LED shows link state: green means a cellular link is established, and orange means the modem is powered but has no cellular link. It takes a micro SIM, or a nano SIM in a micro carrier, behind a screw-secured door; a T6 Torx security screw is included. For better signal, the optional R8G76A USB Extender Cable Kit adds a 5 m cable and wall-mount cradle.
