With the rapid development of FWA and industrial Internet technology, the number of global mobile connections, especially the number of 4G users with LTE/LTE-A as the main force, has rapidly increased in recent years. Due to the global COVID-19 epidemic, people’s life has been greatly changed because they need to work or study at home. This has led to a sharp increase in the popularity of FWA solution products, home gateways, mobile PC and other wireless networking products. Also, users put forward higher requirements for high bandwidth and smoothness of the network.
Recently, MeiG Smart, the world's leading supplier of cellular modules and solutions, has released a series of LTE-A modules SLM828 supporting Cat.12 based on Qualcomm SDX12 platform.
