What is HPUE?
High Power User Equipment (HPUE) is a special class of user equipment (devices) that increase device transmission power by six times (6x). In the U.S., this increased signal can only be transmitted using Band 14. This power increase translates to significant connectivity improvements in terms of range, coverage area, and uplink speeds.
