The Difference Between 4G LTE Gateway and CPE

&#;. What is 4G LTE router


The so-called 4G is the abbreviation of the fourth generation of mobile communication and its technology. In the definition of ITU (International Telecommunication Union), any wireless data network system that reaches or exceeds 100Mbps can be called 4G.


The full name of LTE is "Long Term Evolution", which literally translates to "Long Term Evolution". LTE is divided into two duplex modes, namely FDDLTE and TDD LTE. LTE significantly increases the spectral efficiency and data transmission rate, and the peak rate can reach 50Mbps for uplink and 100Mbps for downlink. Compared with the 3G era, the downlink peak speed of 10Mbps is 10 times faster.


From the concepts of the two, we can understand that 4G and LTE are not the same thing, but generally speaking, LTE network can meet the standard of 4G network (downlink 100Mbps), and the 4G era is dominated by LTE network, so The two are usually combined and collectively referred to as 4G smart router.


&#;. 4G CPE and LTE


4G CPE is an LTE data terminal device that converts high-speed 4G signals into WiFi signals, which can support a large number of mobile terminal access. 4G CPE can be widely used in wireless network access in rural areas, towns, hospitals, units, factories, communities, etc., which can save the cost of laying wired networks.

4G LTE gateway is a comprehensive intelligent gateway that integrates the functions of CPE, voice gateway and wireless router. Users can use POTS phones, PC soft terminals or SIP phones to access CM-IMS through TDD-LTE gateway and use voice services. PCs or mobile phones can access the Internet through the LAN port or WiFl interface to use data services. The 4G LTE gateway is mainly aimed at users such as remote branches of enterprises, cluster stores, and chain stores with LTE coverage.


&#;. The difference between 4G CPE and 4G LTE gateway


1. The 4G CPE can only be accessed through the operator's wireless network, and the 4G LTE gateway also supports wired access on this basis (the 4G LTE gateway has one WAN port). The 4G LTE gateway uplink two access methods can realize the link hot backup function. For example, when the 4G LTE gateway is used as a voice access device, if the voice dedicated line connected to the electrical port (WAN port) fails, the device can automatically switch to the LTE wireless network and registere to the IMS platform to ensure the use of voice and data.


2. The downlink interface of 4G CPE only has WIFI and LAN ports, which can only meet the user's network access needs. However, many shops and stores now need to access financial POS machines, fax machines, landline phones and other equipment, but traditional CPE cannot meet these needs. The 4G LTE gateway adds 2 RJ11 analog interfaces on the basis of CPE, which perfectly complements the function gap of 4G CPE.


4G / 5G - Huawei CPE Pro Vs B618



* The best speed test that my router managed was 237 Mbps Down / 105 Mbps Up.

* Latency is generally around 40 ms. As expected, services like GeForce NOW are a mixed bag with Huawei's router. Having said that, it can stream 4k Videos (YouTube / Netflix / Plex) without issues.

* My connection is also surprisingly stable. I've some Docker containers programmed to shutdown / alert me and try to restart themselves if connection is lost. So far they have managed 18 days of uptime with zero incidents.

* WiFi signal is good enough to cover my entire Flat, although I've noticed some extra latency on the 5Ghz band. My only "WiFi 6" client did manage speeds of 100+ MBps while downloading from my NAS. I couldn't find a way to use the "extra wide" 160 MHz channel, even 80 MHz channels are somewhat unstable where I live. Setting max channel width to 40 MHz and carefully selecting channels did improve latency quite a bit.

* Only two Ethernet ports are available, I bought a switch and connected 8 clients with no issues. The router is able to handle 15+ connected clients without breaking a sweat.

* The Router's Mobile Admin App is crap, plus it asks for so many permissions that I would certainly stay away from it.

* This may be EE specific, but by default only IPv6 addresses where assigned to my devices, breaking a pleura of services. I had to change APN settings, force IPv4 only and use custom DNS services to "fix" the issue.

* By the way, with EE I couldn't really expose internal ports to the Internet, even using IPv6 addresses and fully disabling the router's firewall.

Overall I'm very satisfied with the CPE Pro, it's certainly better than expected and about as good as it gets if you are stuck with LTE / waiting for 5G availability.

So, I've pulled the trigger on a Huawei 5G CPE Pro. So far so good. A few points worth mentioning.* The best speed test that my router managed was 237 Mbps Down / 105 Mbps Up. https://www.speedtest.net/result/a/ (That was in Glasgow, not in London). Average speeds are around 110 MBps Down / 70 Mbps Up. It occasionally slows down to 60 Mbps Down / 20 MBps Up. Keep in mind that I'm on LTE (4G). 5G speeds are supposed to be much faster.* Latency is generally around 40 ms. As expected, services like GeForce NOW are a mixed bag with Huawei's router. Having said that, it can stream 4k Videos (YouTube / Netflix / Plex) without issues.* My connection is also surprisingly stable.
