LTE Cat M1 and
NB-IoT Module
Provider u-blox announced the commercial
launch of its SARA-R410M-02B
LTE Cat M1 and NB-IoT module with
global coverage. SARA-R410M-02B
utilizes a multiband RF front-end solution
to enable up to sixteen LTE bands
within a single hardware version, which
can vastly simplify diverse deployments
worldwide and provide enormous operational
efficiencies.
SARA-R410M-02B also offers notable
software-based configuration advantages
within a single version of firmware.
LTE bands can be enabled or disabled
based on changing criteria such
as the establishment of roaming agreements
among operators. The flexibility
extends further through system selection
of the radio access technology (RAT)
as either a single or preferred connection.
The approved operator profiles
for AT&T, Verizon, and Telstra are all
included as pre-existing and selectable
within software. The module has regulatory
certification approvals in Taiwan
(NCC) and EMEA (RED) broadening
the global commercial reach.
SARA-R410M-02B targets long life,
low-maintenance, cost-sensitive, lowerpower
consumption, extended battery
life applications such as smart buildings,
people and asset tracking, agricultural
monitoring, connected health,
usage-based insurance, smart cities and
smart meters.
