Built-in global roaming capabilities - The LU600 solution now offers a fully integrated hybrid roaming solution for hassle-free local and global operation.

Combining three key elements - dual-SIMs, global modems and roaming software - the LiveU units are ready to roam instantly.
Video return - targeted for professional broadcasters, this other key product enhancement enables field crews to see what's currently on-air and receive teleprompt information during live sessions.
