The Alcatel IK41 LTE USB dongles are IOT-specialized products that provide a secure and reliable LTE Cat 4 high-speed Internet connection as a plug & play solution. The dongles can be connected to various operating systems (Windows & Linux) via a USB Type A connector. Internal antennas are available and optionally antennas with MIMO can be used via two external TS-9 connectors. The IK41VE and IK41UC dongle variants can be controlled via AT commands, giving the host system full control over the LTE connection.
The dingles are used in mobile vending terminals, in vending machines, in consumption meters, in ticket vending machines, in smart cars or in medical equipment and provide e.g. the start of a remote update of certain devices or transmit transactions from vending machines in real time.
