  • Cat has announced the Q10 5G mobile hotspot.
  • This is a rugged hotspot with IP68 water/dust resistance and a MIL-SPEC 810H rating.

Cat phones, maker of heavy-duty rugged phones, threw down a new product category at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona: a rugged mobile hotspot. More specifically, the Cat Q10 5G Mobile Internet Hotspot takes the idea of mobile coverage on the go into new, mud-covered terrain.

Neither mobile hotspots nor rugged devices are a new product category. The Cat Q10, however, may be one of the very first 5G mobile hotspots that also happens to be toughened up for an outdoor environment. The Q10 covers the rugged basics.
