Sierra Wireless launches second generation of AirCard mobile hotspots for 4G LTE networks

 

By
Telecomlead Team:
Sierra Wireless has introduced its newest
family of AirCard mobile hotspots for 4G LTE networks.

 

The AirCard 76xS mobile hotspot product family supports
up to 10 simultaneous Wi-Fi connections, providing ample support for a work
team or family carrying multiple connected devices on a road trip.

 

On a 4G LTE network, the newly launched family provides
sufficient bandwidth to handle demanding applications like online gaming and
streaming media.

 

We listened to customer feedback and have incorporated
new and improved features to make our hotspots even easier to use and the
fastest way to keep all your Wi-Fi-enabled devices connected while on the move.
We are looking forward to several network launches for these devices in the
coming months,” said Dan Schieler, senior vice president, mobile computing for
Sierra Wireless.

 

The family can easily be setup, as there is no software
to install, and device settings can be easily managed through a web browser.

 

The new family offers several feature enhancements,
including an improved user interface, longer battery life, and expanded
frequency band support across the product family.

 

The new mobile hotspots are expected to launch in select
markets in North America, Australia, Asia, and Europe over the next couple of
months.

 

The company added that its AirCard 760S will soon be
launched with Telstra in Australia and with NTT DOCOMO MVNO under the brand
Netindex in Japan.

 

Furthermore, the AirCard 762S is expected to launch with
a mobile network operator in Scandinavia, whilst the AirCard 763S will be
launched on the Rogers LTE network in Canada.

 

Recently,  Sierra Wireless and Panasonic announced that Sierra Wireless will provide 4G LTE
internal modems in the Toughpad A1 an Android-powered business tablet.

 

The tablet targets mission-critical and highly mobile
workers in markets like aviation, construction, field sales and the public
sector.
