It is confirmed compatible with ThinkPad models including the X380 Yoga, X390, L480, T480, T580, T14 Gen 1 (Intel), and X1 Carbon 6th Gen (2018). It is crucial to verify your specific laptop model and that it has the necessary internal antennas installed.

Transforms your laptop into a truly mobile workstation. Enjoy secure, high-speed internet with theoretical download speeds up to 450 Mbps on supported carrier networks. Ideal for business travelers, remote workers, or anyone needing a direct, private internet connection outside the office or home.

Plug-and-Play Installation

Designed as a user-accessible FRU (Field Replacement Unit). The module installs directly into the dedicated M.2 (B-key) WWAN slot on the motherboard of compatible ThinkPads. Installation typically only requires removing the bottom cover, connecting the existing antenna cables, and securing the module with a single screw.

Carrier Agnostic & Global Bands

The Fibocom L850-GL module supports a wide range of 4G LTE bands, making it suitable for use with many carriers globally (e.g., AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon in the US, and various providers internationally). You must it with a compatible data SIM card or eSIM from your chosen carrier.

Important Compatibility & Installation Notice

This is a hardware upgrade for laptops pre-configured by Lenovo with WWAN capabilities. Not all laptops have the required internal antennas or enabled BIOS settings.

CRITICAL Pre-Purchase Checks:

1. Confirm Laptop Model: Ensure your laptop is on the compatible list (e.g., T480, X1 Carbon 6th Gen).

2. Verify Antenna Presence: Your laptop must have the pre-installed WWAN antenna cables (typically two small, black-and-white cables) running from the screen bezel to the motherboard slot. Laptopes bought without a WWAN option often lack these.

3. Check BIOS White-listing: Lenovo BIOS may restrict non-original modules. The L850-GL (01AX792) is an official Lenovo FRU and should be recognized without issue in supported models.

Handle with Care: This is an electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive component. Handle by the edges and ground yourself before installation.

Software Setup Required: After hardware installation, you will need to install the appropriate drivers (usually from Lenovo's support website) and configure the connection in your operating system with your carrier's APN settings.
