Same MBX rugged enclosure and dual-modem architecture as the HD2 MBX 5G, but with two LTE-A Cat-20 modems instead of 5G NR. The right call for maritime and broadcast deployments where 5G isn't deployed at the operating areas, where Cat-20 LTE-A delivers all the cellular bandwidth needed (200 Mbps to 1 Gbps real-world per modem), and where the 4G certification path is more reliable than 5G in the deployment region.
