strange no lte 800/1900 specified, but 2600 supported in single and CA.

 

Wonder where this will end up.

Maybe it is used for fixed wireless. So 2600 only?

Pretty sure this particular device isn't for Sprint or any American operator for that matter. I couldn't find it during a cursory search of the FCC database. I'd imagine that Sprint will eventually launch some derivative of this device as a successor to the Zing hotspot. It'd be nice if they also included the band numbers. Just saying "700" is pretty ambiguous as is "2600".

It's for Telstra. It supports UMTS bands 5, 8, 2, 1 and LTE bands 28, 8, 3, 1, and 7.

Awesome! That clears up a lot. Thank you, Neal.

Bummer. Here's to hoping a sprint lte-advanced variation is produced.
