In short, Gigabit (Category 16) LTE is 256QAM, 3×20 MHz CA, and 4×4 MIMO . The actual rated downlink speed achieved through this combination of technologies is not quite 1 Gbps, but 979 Mbps. Later we’ll discuss what sort of real-world speeds you can expect. Paired with a Cat 16. LTE will be a Cat 13.

Cellular LTE Cat 1 modules support 4G and 5G .
Read moreWhat does LTE Cat 18 mean?
LTE Cat 18 is the new technology introduced by 3GPP as part of the LTE Advanced protocol , that supports up to 8 spatial streams, 4×4 MIMO on 3 LTE carriers, 5×20 MHz carrier aggregation and 64/256 QAM.

What is LTE Cat 1? 4G LTE Cat 1 speeds reach 10 Mbit/s in the downlink and 5 Mbit/s in the uplink , making it ideal for a vast number of feature-rich M2M and IoT applications including those requiring video streaming and voice support.18 Oca 2022
Read moreWhat is LTE+ mean on my phone?
LTE+ is LTE Advanced (meaning multiple cells, currently almost exclusively 2, and typically is deployed with up to 300/100 or even 600+ mbps). the real advantage doesn’t lie in the max speed (first it’s rarely achieved, second 150 is pretty fast anyway), it lies in the reliability of your speed.30 Oca 2018
Read moreIs LTE+ the same as 4G?
LTE Advanced (LTE+) describes the 4G standard . Depending on the reception, LTE and LTE+ have significantly higher download rates than older standards-up to 150 Mb per second with LTE and up to 300 Mb per second with LTE+.21 Oca 2019
Read moreIs LTE+ faster than 4G?
In laymans terms, the difference between 4G and LTE is that 4G is faster than LTE . The reason for this is that 4G meets the technical standards designated for it whereas LTE data transfer speed standard is merely a stopgap measure standard devised until actual 4G speed is realized.17 Eyl 2019
