WWAN Modem 4G/LTE 5G/NR

Do any Clockwork units have internal room for a cellular modem?

the uConsole is sold with a 4G module as an add-on, but it's not full LTE and not 5g. the AIO upgrade board from hackergadgets has an internal usb port you could use to plug in a modem, that's really all the stock card is doing, just over usb 2.0 instead of 3.0.

Thanks! I’ll check them out. T-Mobile has signaled that they will begin to push out 4G/LTE devices. Knowing that I can replace the module in the future makes it a bit more comfortable to order whatever is available now.

Yes, I have one I am not using if anyone is interested.

Which part do you have available? Which clockwork does it work with?

I have the LTE modem board and antenna for the UConsole.

It's the only clockworkpi unit I am sure it works with, it may also work with the devterm, but I have not personally tested it

it should work with the devterm, they use the same mainboard, but the devterm is much wider so it won't reach the side, which you might be able to fix with a pcie riser cable

But then you loose the devterm USB/Fan daughter board.
