The Baltic Backpack and a 4G modem are no comparison. Many customers that come to us for this service have used regular 4G services and been let down by its performance, restricted by Carrier Grade NAT (CGNAT) and lack of support.
Here are just a few of the differences between the BackPack and 4G modem:
-
Increase your chances of your data getting through. By utilising four simultaneous mobile connections you’ll increase your chances of connection reliability especially during crowded events whereby other 4G users are all competing with each other for bandwidth and mobile mast airtime
-
The backpack uses Carrier Aggregation on each 4G connection (making use of multiple mobile carriers frequencies resulting in higher speeds in areas of high amount of mobile users)
-
We use Business grade (non-consumer grade) unlimited data SIM cards for each connection as such it’s not constrained by the mobile carriers fair use policies for excessive use
-
You get a static IP address(s) that remains consistent for the life of the hire, or it can remain permanent for all future hires (by arrangement)
-
It has higher gain antennas that connects to various mobile masts and an high gain interference rejection filter, something that regular 4G modems don’t have
-
We connect directly to the mobile operators RAN (Radio Access Network), allowing us to provide our own internet “over the top” and therefore don’t use the the highly contented, bandwidth shaped and performance managed broadband that they usually provide (you will have Baltic’s Internet)
-
We optimise your connection by automatically shortening the path between you and your end point (for example, we directly peer with YouTube and many more (have a direct connection with them) in order to keep latency, packet loss and dropped frames as low as possible)
