EVDO Devices Supported

Originally, the Z/IP ONE supported the following EVDO devices:

1.

Sierra Wireless USB device AC595U for either Sprint or Verizon

2.

Novatel Ovation U727

3.

Novatel Ovation U720

Since then, USB EVDO devices and carriers have changed too rapidly for us to be able to maintain a compatibility
list that is of any use. Some devices on some carriers may still work – it is worth trying. However, for the best
chance of compatibility, we now recommend the use of Cradlepoint™ wireless data to Ethernet bridges. Cradle-
point specializes in wireless accessory compatibility, and works seamlessly with a Z/IP ONE. Choose a model that
converts wireless data to wired Ethernet, and you can set your Z/IP ONE to stream via the WAN or LAN port, just
as though it was connected to a wired Ethernet router.
