T-Mobile 5G Gateway G4SE (Sagemcom)
3.9

The G4SE is the Sagemcom variant of T-Mobile’s mid-generation gateway. Functionally similar to the G4AR (Sercomm variant) but with slightly different RF tuning and a different admin interface.
On T-Mobile’s roster, you’ll get either the G4SE or G4AR depending on which vendor is shipping in your region that month — it’s essentially a coin flip. Both perform similarly in real-world tests. If you care about specific signal metrics being exposed in the admin UI, the G4SE tends to be slightly more generous.
Still no external antenna ports — if your signal is marginal, the answer is the same as every other T-Mobile carrier gateway: either move the unit or switch to an unlocked modem with antenna ports.
Pros
- More compact and lower-profile than the KVD21 tower
- Two Ethernet ports
- Better thermal design — less throttling in hot rooms
- Solid WiFi 6 performance for the gateway class
Cons
- No external antenna ports (same Achilles heel as G4AR/KVD21)
- Admin UI is more locked-down than the older KVD21
- Being superseded by the G5AR in newer T-Mobile shipments
