I recently purchased a LHG with new LTE6 modem, which, apart from supporting Channel Aggregation, supports some 700 MHz bands : B12 and B17. Unfortunately, in France only the B28 is allocated for LTE networks of all the operators. So, attention les Français !.
Is there a modem, fro Mikrotik or otherwise, that does support band B28 ? 700 MHz is the preferred frequency band in rural area's, so for the LHG and SXT products, this is highly relevant.
Currently, NO Band 28.
B12 in R11e-LTE-US
B12+B17 in R11e-LTE6
but you can use popular webpage to found a modem on miniPCIe factor with all B12/17/28 at:
https://techship.com/products/category/lte-cat-6/ and you found Telit LM940 LTE CAT-11, GPS, mPCIe.
In my opinion better way is use a common soho MikroTik with USB 1A and USB Modem who have those band's and external antenna if needed.
On google I found that band for France: LTE 700 (28), LTE 800 (20),
LTE 1800 (3), LTE 2100 (1), LTE 2600 (7) and I bold the fast one. And those are common in EMEA. Other bands are only to cover more distance with slow speed.
