Delivery time: Est. delivery 7d
AirLink LX40 is a compact LTE router for enterprise and IoT/M2M enterprise applications.
LX40 offers an easy-to-install, efficient, secure, manageable LTE network for applications such as cameras, security, Point -of-Sale terminals and smart cabinets. The LX40 is also ideal for connecting industrial, remote data logging and sensor equipment in protected (indoor) locations and enables processing of IoT data locally.
As part of the AirLink Essential Series, the LX40 is designed to meet environmental - and performance requirements of these applications, while providing superior reliability and uninterrupted operation in fixed indoor and protected outdoor environments.
LX40 is also available with optional Wi-Fi Dual Band 802.11ac to provide an access point or connect to local Wi-Fi networks.
Supplied with DC cable only. Antennas and AC adapter not included.
Network management solutions available for the LX40 offer administrators to maintain multiple device configurations, update software and remotely diagnose reported problems and are available either as a hosted cloud-based service or as a licensed software platform in your data center.
In the cloud
AirLink Management Service (ALMS) enables registration, configuration and software updates for the complete portfolio of AirLink gateways and routers.
A cloud service that provides an overview of the entire installation including signal strength, network technology and location. Custom alerts can be set to monitor and report critical events, helping you increase efficiency and prevent downtime. ALMS is free to use for installations with 15 devices or less.
In the enterprise

Explanation of frequency bands
When choosing an antenna, pay attention to which frequency bands the antenna supports. Depending on which operator and where the antenna will be used, the frequency bands vary. Larger cities use 2600MHz while smaller towns use 800/900MHz with some support bands in between such as 1800/2100MHz.
A higher frequency band gives a higher speed but also has a shorter range. The same applies to the antenna, if you have a base station that transmits on 2600MHz, your antenna, antenna cable and the location of the antenna become more important than on a lower frequency band. Explanation of signal loss we will go through soon. Higher frequency bands also mean shorter range from the base station.
450MHz (coverage band) also known as the Net1 band is the frequency band that covers the most area in Sweden. Therefore, Net1 is known to be able to have reception where other operators don´t have a chance, but with low download and upload speeds. The reason why this band is called Net1 is because that the company Net1 has exclusive rights to this frequency band.
800MHz (coverage band) is used by all common operators, excluding Net1. The low frequency band means that 800MHz covers a lot of space. Therefore, the band is used outside big cities or smaller towns. 800MHz is the most used frequency band around Europe.
900MHz (coverage band) is the band that Tele2 and Telenor initially used as coverage band. 900MHz is a more unusual LTE band and in the beginning the band caused some problems when the clients (mobile phones etc.) could not connect to 900MHz. Today, the mobile phone manufacturers have adapted the mobile phones to be able to communicate on 900MHz.
1800MHz (capacity band) is the latest frequency band launched. All operators today use this band in metropolitan centers (apart from Net1).
2600MHz (capacity band) is a very well-used frequency band all over Europe. 2600MHz is the highest frequency band used for LTE, this means that the band also has the shortest range compared to 800/900MHz. Due to the high capacity, the band is used in metropolitan environments where many base stations are required to cover as much surface as possible and have as high a capacity as possible.
