With 4G Cat. 4, the LT400 Outdoor communicates with download speeds of up to 150 Mbps and upload speeds of 50 Mbps. It features Wi-Fi N300, providing a reliable network for web browsing, video streaming, camera surveillance, and POS services.
Enhanced Wi-Fi Coverage with Beamforming
Tested Wi-Fi coverage performance in four scenarios, achieved with Beamforming technology and two built-in antennas.
External Placement
The device is protected by a standard IP65 enclosure, which shields it from rain and dust when mounted vertically. It also features 4 kV Lightning/Surge protection and 8 kV ESD protection for greater reliability in case of a storm. Its operating temperatures range from -40 °F to 149 °F (-40 °C to 65 °C).
Antenna Replacement
The default 4G antennas are just as sensitive as those of a regular phone. You can still replace them via the SMA connectors.

The distance from the transmission antenna is approximately 800 meters. It was installed on my roof (single-family home). There are taller buildings that obstruct direct contact. With a LAN connection, it performs about as shown in the photo. In live streaming, it has some stutters. It's worth it for someone who doesn't want the sky with stars. With a SIM, for example, Cosmote, and with 80 euros, you have 400 GB for 1 year. Easy to install. An advantage is that the antennas can be unscrewed. Another one can be installed (this will happen soon)
Very good. Easy to configure with a very good UI. It has been working in the village for 3 months with a 4G Cosmote card and has not presented any problems!
Incompatibilities: It refuses to cooperate with Intel's AX201 WiFi chipset (also known as Tiger Lake PCH CNVi WiFi) that many laptops with Intel processors have. While it connects to its WiFi network, no data is transferred from it. It does not work from either Linux or Windows. Tested both from my laptop and from a Mini PC with the same chip. The same problem exists with Xiaomi's MiBox. The issue has been sent to Cudy's "support," without any response, not even a "for appearances' sake." The problem can be resolved with some USB WiFi or Range Extender, but that is not the optimal solution for everyone.
WiFi Signal: Additionally, the WiFi connection is very weak. Its WiFi antennas are 2xMIMO and are located internally (the antennas you see are for 4G), resulting in poor coverage, given that it is intended for outdoor use. If you want to cover your home and have it installed on a pole on the roof, you may have a problem. The issue can also be solved with a Range Extender, or by moving the UTP cable to a router inside the house and using the WiFi from the internal router.
4G Signal: Finally, if there is no line of sight with the mobile antenna, its antennas do almost nothing, despite the claimed gain of 5dbi. It has slightly better signal quality with the mobile phone (and the phone is not on a pole!).
Management: Otherwise, excellent management interface. Much superior for the money it asks for. If only it did well what it is purchased for...
For its price, it is incredible.
Very easy installation, fit perfectly to help the adsl that reaches 4-5 Mbps.
With Cosmote unlimited sim, the only thing I needed to change was the APN to vpn-internet to get a public IP.
Consistently we have 20-25+ Mbps. The mobile antenna is 2.6 km away.
The menu is incredible and VERY COMPREHENSIVE.
The built-in wireguard worked with 5 clicks.
Overall, I highly recommend it, especially for entry-level users.
