T440x (any of them) - Mobile Broadband Upgradable
Posted: Fri Nov 08, 2013 7:20 am
I want to order a new T440, likely a T440s. Anyone know what the deal is with a Mobile Broadband card? Is it available now? Will it work?
Hello,
Lenovo lists 2 WWAN cards for the T440s:
Ericsson N5321 NGFF
marketing P/N: 0C52883, Service P/N (FRU): 04W3823

Sierra Gobi5000 LTE/EVDO/HSPA+ 42Mbps NGFF Card,
marketing P/N: 0C52902, Service P/N: 04W3801
http://support.lenovo.com/de_DE/product ... D=PD028519
This might be locked to Verizon.
They also sell:
ThinkPad GOBI 5000 Mobile Broadband – AT&T
marketing P/N: 0C52886
http://support.lenovo.com/de_DE/product ... D=PD028518
but i can't find any information whether it will work with the T440s.
The GOBI 5000 cards are available in the Lenovo U.S. webshop:

The Ericsson card might be available through this page, but i don't know whether they sell to end-users or only to dealers:

EDIT: The Option Compatibility Matrix lists the GOBI 5000 AT&T card as being incompatible as well as compatible:
