Introduction of Products
NB96M Mini PCIe is a series of LTE Cat M1/Cat NB1/EGPRS module adopting standard PCI Express® Mini Card form factor (Mini
PCIe). It offers a maximum data rate of 375Kbps downlink and 375Kbps uplink, and features ultra-low power consumption.
With a cost-effective SMT form factor of 51.0mm × 30.0mm × 4.9mm and high integration level, BG96 enables integrators and developers to easily design their applications and take advantage from the module’s low power consumption and mechanical intensity.
A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant functionalities (USB drivers for Windows 7/8/8.1/10, Linux, etc.) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of M2M applications such as wireless POS, smart metering, tracking, etc. |
Key Benefits
- LTE Cat M1/Cat NB1/EGPRS module with ultra-low power consumption
- Standard PCI Express® Mini Card form factor (Mini PCIe) ideal for
manufacturers to easily integrate wireless connectivity into their devices
- Easy migration from Quectel GSM/GPRS, UMTS/HSPA and LTE modules
- Fast time-to-market: reference designs, evaluation tools and timely
technical support minimize design-in time and development efforts
- Robust mounting and interfaces
