The Proxicast LAN-Cell 2 is an enterprise-class upgradeable 3G secure cellular router.

To keep pace with the latest in 3G wireless technologies and standards, Proxicast has added support for these additional cellular PC-Card (PCMCIA) and ExpressCard modems: Sierra Wireless AirCard 402 (Sprint & Verizon Wireless) Novatel Wireless Merlin C777 (Sprint) Novatel Wireless Merlin PC770 (Verizon Wireless) The Sierra Wireless AirCard 402 and Novatel Wireless Merlin PC770 / C777 feature innovative 2-in-1 designs that allow them to function as both full size PC-Card (54 mm) and ExpressCard (34 mm) 3G cellular modems.
