ADT in the US already did this, funny enough.
They acquired a company called CellBounce (https://cellbounce.com/ https://cellbounce.com/) that manufactures a very small 3G-LTE gateway. They bind it to a single device (eg, locking it to an alarm panel's IMSI) and pass the authentication through to AT&T to allow the panel onto the LTE network. Most of the device itself is just a giant lead acid battery, and the actual CellBounce motherboard is... actually very low component count and tiny.
The actual Qualcomm femtocell board (linked below) that they built as a reference design for the chipset is... amazingly tiny.
