Wavecom has introduced two new members of its Q26 series wireless CPU family. The new Q26 Extreme offers dual-mode 2G and 3G to enable data-intensive applications like realtime video streaming for the security or automotive industries. In addition, the new Q26 Elite offers CDMA 2000 1x wireless voice and data connectivity in the same form factor, so customers can design their application once and connect using any cellular protocol, anywhere around the world. The new products are also footprint compatible with the existing Q2686 and Q2687 Classic (GSM/GPRS) and Q2687 (EDGE) devices in order to smooth product development and simplify the process of upgrading.
The 3G Q26 Extreme is equipped with antenna diversity and runs at peak data rates up to 7,2 Mbps HSDPA and 2 Mbps HSUPA with automated 2G/3G handover. It supports quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE on the 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz bands and tri-band HSPA on the 850, 1900, 2100 MHz bands for global network compatibility.
It can be used as a smart wireless modem, connecting to back-end IT systems securely; as a cooperative processor, sharing the system load of the final product with a host processor; or, with the application embedded directly on the device’s integrated ARM9 32-bit processor, capable of executing 88 million instructions per second. This is possible thanks to Open AT, an M2M-optimised cellular wireless software suite which allows customers to embed their C and/or Lua application directly on the device to save development time and the expense of an external processor. External or embedded applications written for Q2686 or Q2687 devices are fully portable without additional software coding.
To support the needs of automotive, finance and security customers, the Q26 Extreme is available with inSIM, the Wavecom integrated Subscriber Identity Module, for enhanced durability in extreme environmental conditions. It also comes with Open AT plug-ins designed to simplify integration of security and GPS technology. The Q26 Extreme can also interface with Microsoft Windows CE.
The second new product, Q26 Elite, features up-to-date CDMA technology and supports GPS, making it suited for fleet management and tracking applications with E911 requirements. In addition, it provides customers using CDMA an opportunity to upgrade as new technology becomes available. Both products are automotive grade.
