TCL Communication presented two new Alcatel Linkzone LTE hotspots at the MWC in Barcelona.\u00a0The Linkzone Cat7 Hotspot can achieve speeds of up to 300 MBit\/s<\/strong><\/a> in the download and up to 100 MBit\/s in the upload, while the other one Linkzone Cat12 Router can reach up to 600 MBit\/s<\/strong><\/a> in the download and up to 100 MBit\/s in the upload.\u00a0However, both the two LTE hotspots don’t have a display, so the operation takes place either via app or browser web interface.<\/p>\n

Alcatel Linkzone Cat12<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The Alcatel Linkzone Cat12 LTE Hotspot comes in a black case with a 4,300 mAh battery.\u00a0According to the manufacturer, the operating time is about 15 hours; LEDs on the front indicate the operating status.\u00a0If required, the device can also be used to charge other devices (power bank function).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The antennas for mobile radio and for WLAN are firmly integrated in the housing, but the connections for 4G external antennas<\/strong><\/a> do not exist.\u00a0Even a MicroSD memory card slot is not integrated with the Alcatel Linkzone Cat12, which feature was often found at mobile hotspots.\u00a0The WLAN module of the Linkzone Cat12 works according to the standards 802.11a\/b\/g\/n\/ac and allows up to 32 users at the same time.\u00a0On request, two WLAN names can be sent in parallel.\u00a0The wireless speed is at a maximum of 867 MBit\/s according to the manufacturer. And the Alcatel Linkzone Cat12 LTE Hotspot will be available “later in 2018”.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Alcatel Linkzone Cat7<\/a><\/h5>\n

The Alcatel Linkzone Cat7 LTE Hotspot is the small sister model to the Linkzone Cat12.\u00a0And the Linkzone Cat7 is much cheaper based on weaker specifications.\u00a0The battery has capacity of 2150 mAh, which is significantly lower than the linkzone Cat12<\/strong>.\u00a0The battery life is advertised with up to 8 hours.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Regarding the WLAN, there is no difference to the more expensive Cat12 model: the wireless module operates on the standards 802.11a\/b\/g\/n\/ac at 2.4 and 5 gigahertz and allows up to 32 users at the same time.\u00a0On request, two WLAN names can be sent in parallel.\u00a0The WLAN speed is a maximum of 867 MBit\/s.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Both hotspots with LTE band 32<\/a><\/h5>\n

It is pleasing that both Alcatel hotspots support all the frequency ranges that are currently important for Europe, including Band 1, 3, 7, 8 and 20 as well as Band 32 (1500 MHz).\u00a0The 1500 MHz band will be used as Supplemental Downlink (SDL) in the future at Vodafone and Telekom to enable faster downlink speeds.<\/p>\n
