MAX HD4 FAQ
Why would I need 4 cellular modems in one device?
Quad cellular provides ultimate redundancy for mission-critical applications. Each modem can use different carriers (Telstra, Optus, Vodafone, TPG), ensuring connectivity even if 3 carriers fail. Ideal for emergency services, mining operations, and applications where downtime costs exceed equipment investment.
How much bandwidth can the MAX HD4 achieve in Australia?
With 4x4G LTE Cat 12 modems, theoretical maximum is 1.2 Gbps (300 Mbps per modem). Real-world performance: 400-800 Mbps depending on carrier coverage and network conditions. SpeedFusion bonding optimizes performance across all connections automatically.
What are the data costs for quad-cellular operation?
Quad operation requires 4 data plans, typically $80-150/month each ($320-600 total). For high-usage scenarios, negotiate pooled enterprise plans or carrier-specific rates. Consider usage-based plans for backup modems that activate only during failures.
Is the MAX HD4 suitable for permanent installations?
While designed for mobile use, the MAX HD4 works excellently for permanent installations requiring maximum cellular redundancy. Common permanent uses: remote mining sites, emergency communication hubs, and locations where fixed connectivity is unreliable or unavailable.
How does GPS tracking work with the MAX HD4?
Integrated GPS provides real-time location tracking through InControl platform. Useful for fleet management, asset tracking, and emergency response coordination. Location data can trigger automated policies or alerts based on geographic zones.
What makes the MAX HD4 different from MAX Transit Duo?
MAX HD4 offers 4x4G LTE modems vs Transit Duo's 2x5G/4G, providing maximum redundancy over maximum speed. HD4 is larger and consumes more power but offers unmatched reliability. Choose HD4 for mission-critical applications, Transit Duo for high-speed mobile needs.
