Pentaband HSPA+ module

9 November 2011 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Telit Wireless Solutions launched the HE910, claiming it to be the world’s smallest M2M module featuring 5-band HSPA+. The module can thus be used in any 3G network worldwide without the need for regional variants. The land grid array (LGA) form factor with a footprint of only 795 mm² is especially suitable for compact devices with data-rich applications like multimedia.

In 3G mode, the device supports all five existing frequency bands: 850/900/1700/1900/2100 MHz. Additionally, it provides ubiquitous 2G coverage with quad-band GPRS and EDGE class 33. The universal applicability warrants business scalability and is a strong asset for vendors who want to market their solutions worldwide because these features eliminate the need for individual country versions and part numbers of the module, featuring different frequency allocations.

With HSDPA transfer rates of 14,4 Mbps (Cat 10) and HSUPA of 5,7 Mbps (Cat 6), the module is well suited for devices with high throughput applications such as mobile computing, in-car telematics, PDAs, e-readers, tablet PCs and consumer electronics in general. Future firmware releases will offer the possibility to further increase the throughput without having to make changes to the hardware.

The HE910 family features a high-speed serial port (MIPI HSI) and receive diversity. Optionally, it is equipped with integrated high sensitivity A-GPS functionality for indoor fixes and simultaneous GPS with voice and data.
