Peplink & Assured Wireless – Using FirstNet MegaRange with SpeedFusion

Following the announcement of FirstNet MegaRange™, Peplink and Assured Wireless have created a partnership to combine SpeedFusion with High Power User Equipment (HPUE) – check out the Assured Wireless’ AW12 MegaRange™ Modem solution here. HPUE boosts transmission power up to 6x higher than traditional LTE equipment, which vastly improves cellular coverage in areas where data connectivity is traditionally unreliable, or difficult to reach due to location (e.g remote regions, rural areas, maritime environments, underground structures, etc). 

This integration allows Peplink customers to add FirstNet MegaRange™ to their existing devices and allows MegaRange™ customers to gain signal heat mapping, centralized provisioning, and the powerful SpeedFusion technology to further protect mission critical applications. 

Along with Peplink’s SpeedFusion technology, users also have access to the InControl2 management system. From a single pane of glass, the coverage of any modems can be instantly visualized, network security can be centrally managed, and each parameter of the HPUE modems can be fully controlled. InControl2 comes with universal GPS integration and fully supports API integration, so that CAD and other systems can be updated in real time.

It’s a play that we really like, and it’s a play that’s going to differentiate us in the marketplace as we begin to roll this out over the course of this year.”

Some of the New AT&T phones are even showing 5G E instead of the 4G LTE. This will offer 400 megabits per second. Even thow this is not true 5G speeds, this will be a good foundation for the 5G network from AT&T. These connections are not true 5G plus as the customers are not even able to purchase 5G plus phones yet.
