Installation Instructions

LTE Modem Module

The CSG300 series LTE modem module is a high-performance Cat-6 LTE Advanced modem that provides up to 300

Mbps download speeds and 50 Mbps upload speeds. The LTE modem supports multiple carriers, and it has been

certified by major global carriers. The appliance has two externally accessible SIM card slots, one for each embedded

LTE-A modem. If the appliance is configured with two LTE-A modems, each SIM card is used to control one LTE radio

each. The appliance also has one USB slot that can be connected to an LTE dongle if desired. With two internal

modems and one USB attached modem, you can deploy up to three simultaneous LTE WAN connections.

The LTE firmware-driven modem module provides the following capabilities:

• Externally accessible SIM cards that support dual-LTE modems.

• Connects to most global carrier's network based on the SIM card inserted. For example, if a SIM card is inserted

from carrier A, the modem will auto-detect the SIM card and connect to carrier A's network. If a SIM card is

inserted from carrier B, the modem will connect to the network of carrier B.

• Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver enables tracking and location-based services.

• Stores up to three firmware versions, thereby allowing the modem to switch to other networks.

• Firmware can be upgraded over the air.

• Secure boot provides secure connectivity by preventing unauthorized code on target devices.

The LTE modem connections are metered connections, and the Versa software implementation ensures that the LTE

service is charged only when needed. Policies and scenarios that determine the use of LTE interfaces are set by

network operators and implemented by Versa FlexVNF accordingly.
