Intel gets serious about 4G LTE with new chip Oct 31st 2013, 15:51, by Jared Newman Intel has been talking about 4G LTE in mobile devices for a while, but now the chipmaker is walking the walk with its first multi-mode 4G LTE modem. Asian and European versions of Samsung's Galaxy Tab 3 will be the first to feature Intel's new ZMM 7160 processor. The ZMM 7160 model will allow phones and tablets—presumably those with Intel chips inside—to connect to 4G LTE networks in North America, Asia, and Europe. The chip will first appear in the Asia and Europe versions of Samsung's Galaxy Tab 3, and Intel says it's now commercially available to other vendors as well. This isn't Intel's first 4G LTE modem, but a previous single-mode chip was unable to fall back on older 3G and 2G networks. The ZMM 7160 can connect to both GSM and HSPA networks, so it's a much better fit for wireless carrier support.
