Sequans has announced that its Cassiopeia CA410 module will be entering mass production in the first week of April 2025. This LTE Cat 4 module has received certifications from Southern Linc and Anterix, and is compliant with CBRS requirements, showcasing its readiness for deployment in various utility applications.
Along with support for Anterix’s 900 MHz spectrum and the CBRS band, the CA410 module also covers all North American public LTE bands. This flexibility allows utilities to operate private LTE networks while maintaining seamless connectivity with public networks, ensuring secure and reliable service delivery.
The deployment of private LTE networks offers utilities several advantages:
1. Enhanced Security: Private LTE networks enable utilities to implement robust cybersecurity measures, including advanced identity and access controls, monitoring systems, and the option to isolate the network from public internet access, reducing vulnerability to cyber threats.
2. Improved Reliability and Control: Ownership of a private network gives utilities greater control over their communications infrastructure, leading to increased reliability and the ability to customize network configurations to specific operational needs.
3. Cost Efficiency: By reducing reliance on leased lines and public network services, private LTE networks can result in significant cost savings over time. Utilities can avoid recurring expenses associated with third-party network usage and benefit from more predictable operational costs.
The CA410 module is based on Sequans’ in-house developed LTE Cat 4 intellectual property. This commitment to fully Western technology aligns with the security and regulatory preferences of the utility sector, ensuring compliance and building trust among industry stakeholders.
With the upcoming mass production of the Cassiopeia CA410 module, Sequans remains dedicated to assisting utilities in modernizing their communications infrastructure, improving operational efficiency, and safeguarding their networks against emerging threats.
