If I pop that sim (AT&T unlimited data plan) into my new iPad, which has the 3 Gig plan, will i be able to connect to the LTE network?
 
What you'll likely get is a nasty text message from AT&T shutting down your data plan until you call them.
 
You likely will get data but not LTE.

Correct. If I'm not mistaken you would need an LTE capable SIM card. You would also have to change the APN.

I do know that you can definitely use an iPhone SIM in an iPad and use it for data, though. I've done it myself.
 
I used a non-smartphone data plan with an iPhone for a couple of years. I had to change the APN settings in the phone to use the sim from my other phone. I would image that the APN settings are already set between the two though.
