Introduction

Hotspot™ was designed and engineered for the mobile
lifestyle. The weatherproof, external cellular antenna
array increases your signal range far beyond a simple
“off-the-shelf” mobile hotspot. Hotspot utilizes Direct Link
Technology specifically designed to go wherever you
go. Direct Link Technology provides the fastest 4G LTE
connectivity available, up to 150Mbps, so you’re connected
wherever the road may take you.

Hotspot™ can be used as a portable device but should be
fastened in the trailer to a mounting surface initially.

Hotspot™ is compatible with AT&T® cellular service using
LTE bands 2,4 & 12. In order to activate your Hotspot™,
the owner will need to purchase their own LCI data
package and activate a LCI user account.

Additional information about this product can be
obtained from lci1.com/support or by using the myLCI
app. Replacement components can be ordered from

https://store.lci1.com/ or by using the myLCI app.
