There's no mention of a WWAN module installed, so you can just buy one that's compatible with both your network and your Toughbook.

"WWAN Sled and Antenna." I think this is it, but it not say what model

You need to buy a WWAN sled and install it. Gobi's should work worldwide as far as I know.

Exactly. No module installed, just an empty sled.

Looks like an EU860D. With a little bit of googling you might be able to confirm that it operates on 850, 1900, and 2100 MHz bands on HSDPA and UMTS networks at 7.2Mbps. Ask the seller if it's carrier locked or just slap in your SIM card and hope for the best.
