What is the difference between LTE and Point to Multipoint wireless equipment?

Some of our towers operate LTE technology. LTE stands for Long Term Evolution as part of 4G (4th generation) advancements in technology. This equipment does not need direct line of sight to provide coverage for Internet services. This is especially useful in areas where difficult terrain makes connections very challenging. While our point-to-multipoint (PTP) is more often capable of delivering faster speeds, PTP technology requires a direct line of sight connection to the tower.
