The USB dongle "Pix-MT100" that is perfect for IoT and becomes a mobile Wi-Fi router

When using a PC on the go, the net line often uses a mobile Wi-Fi router, but it seems useless to fly radio waves that can only be used, and there is 1 terminal that manages the battery level.The number of platforms increases and it is troublesome.So I was looking for a type of communication adapter attached to the old USB.

New products have not appeared since the "L-03F" released in 2014 in the USB dongle type data card, NTT DOCOMO.In fact, there are few opportunities to get used and good products in a out -of -print state.The previous model "L-03D" is LTE only for Badn1, and there is a difficulty in the corresponding area.Furthermore, the "L-02C" before that was unstable in Windows 10.If so, you will search other than docomo brands.I found it at that time.

I thought it was a modem that used by inserting it into a USB port from the name.However, the actual situation is completely different, and this is a mobile Wi-Fi router that works by power supply from USB.You can also use communication via USB port, but you can set the device from the web browser, which is a mobile router specification.The difference from a general mobile router is that it doesn't have a built -in battery.

The power supply on / off is the simplicity of whether to supply a power to the USB.If you do not need it, if you pull it out of the USB, it will turn off the power, and there is no worry that the power will be turned on intentionally.Set the radio wave of the wireless LAN and communicate with the USB port to achieve the initial purpose.The band is 2GHz band (band 1), 800MHz band (band 19) and 1.Since it corresponds to the 8GHz band (band 3), there is no area problem in using docomo's wireless network.

I was interested in all, and I immediately purchased it and used it, but it was enough for a communication module used on the go.Above all, the easy -to -use power off is convenient.If you do not insert it directly on your computer, you can adjust the capacity of the mobile battery to be combined according to the use time of the day.

Pix-MT100 is really effective when IoT equipment is placed in a place without communication lines.Compared to a general mobile router that turns on the power to turn on the power and turns on the power, the power -on probability is several steps higher.If you combine it with a general -purpose power supply timer, you can turn on the communication for a certain period of time.Similar devices also have the NEC platforms "Aterm HT100LN", but the Pix-MT100 can be powered by USB and is overwhelmingly small, so the range is wide.

For example, if the network camera is set to a dynamic monitoring, and the cheap SIM and this model are combined, it will be a surveillance camera that can be installed in a place without a net line.It can be used as a remote control line that combines Raspberry Pi and a small PC and peripheral device.

In addition, even if it is combined with an in -vehicle IoT communication device, if you use a USB power adapter for the car, the communication line will be enabled when the engine is started, and the communication can be cut when the engine is turned off.However, depending on the vehicle type, the accessory power supply may be unstable when the engine is started, so Pixela says, "Please remove it from the cigar socket when starting the engine."You should be careful.

Except when connecting to a personal computer, it is used in combination with the mobile battery "Anker PowerCore Fusion 5000", which is integrated with the AC adapter.In this case, it can be used seamlessly, whether there is a power supply.If you look closely, there are some cheaper products like Huawei's "E8372" overseas.I want this type of mobile router to be popular in Japan.
