LTE7490-M904
4G LTE-A Pro Outdoor Router
Zyxel LTE7490-M904 4G LTE-A Pro Outdoor Router supports Cat. 18 and
perfect for the operators who are looking for 4G LTE FWA solutions to deliver
ultra-fast and high-capacity premium broadband services with deployment
flexibility.
Benefits
Lightning-fast internet connectivity
The Zyxel LTE7490-M904 4G LTE-A Pro Outdoor Router employs 3GPP UE
downlink Category 18 – the top-level LTE technology with downlink data rates
of up to 1.2 Gbps through 12 spatial streams on three component carriers.
Built-in 4x4 MIMO high-gain antenna
The Zyxel LTE7490-M904 4G LTE-A Pro Outdoor Router provides 4x4 MIMO
high-gain antennas of up to 7 dBi per element that work effectively in outdoor
environments. The outdoor design enables it to work under near non-line-ofsight conditions to increase coverage and bandwidth as well as to eliminate
edge corners having difficulty accessing good signals.
Strengthen your competitive edge with Fixed Wireless Access
(FWA)
Deploying LTE7490-M904 as part of FWA allows you to extend your 4G
service coverage into subscribers’ homes and workplaces without extra
wire infrastructure. This secures the TCOs and increases business revenue
by supporting a larger number of subscribers with a premium fixed-grade
connection.
3GPP Release 12 Cat. 18/up to
1.2 Gbps/150 Mbps (DL/UL)
Built-in 4x4 MIMO, high-gain
antennas of up to 7 dBi per
element
Standard 802.3af/at Gigabit
PoE
Remote management via TR069 (TR-181 and TR-143 speed
test) HTTP/web GUI and FTP
IP68 hardened enclosure with
industrial grade components
Zyxel mobile apps (iOS and
Android)

Non-stop connectivity with LTE 2nd WAN for
failover
The wireless LTE allows you to take advantage of the
2nd WAN without a cabling plan. As long as the gateway
supports "Dual-WAN Failover ", you can just connect Zyxel
LTE7490-M904 to the existing gateway and set LTE as the
failover WAN and relieve the risk of network outage.
Easy installation with Zyxel's mobile app
Easy Installation is realized with a flexible wall or pole
mounting kit, integrated 802.3af/at PoE injector support,
and dedicated WiFi interface. The LTE7490-M904 connects
to Zyxel's mobile app with intuitive RF signal strength
graphics for base station alignment.

With TR-069, TR-181 and TR-143 support, the Zyxel
LTE7490-M904 effectively secures OPEX by reducing the
frequency of on-site support and by providing simplified
diagnostic, configuration and troubleshooting processes.
Environmentally-hardened
With IP68-compliant K.21 6 kV/300 A lightning protection,
the Zyxel LTE7490-M904 guarantees high-quality
connections, a longer device life despite the weather and
natural challenges. The LTE7490-M904 can operate within
a wide range of temperature and humidity, which supports
your service deployed in wide territorial scopes.
