[ANSS-netops] 4G Sierra Wireless modems

[Jason De Cristofaro]

Verizon offers an unlimited 4G plan for Government accounts, the same as with 3G.  It's approx 43/month and works great in the metropolitan areas.

They claim it is "Certified on the Verizon Wireless LTE network and commercially available in Q1 2012" and in a "rugged" package.  I didn't make any further inquiries because we aren't looking for such bandwidth yet in a cellular modem (5-12Gbps), but I thought I'd let you all know.  I'm also not sure what sort of data plans are available from Verizon for 4G, but I am meeting with my rep next week so I'll get it from him then.  I know, what good am I?
