LTE-M and NB-IoT are low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) technologies used by mobile network operators globally. They operate in licenced spectrum to guarantee customers quality of service and provide strong coverage over large surface areas. Signal penetration provided by NB-IoT and LTE-M technologies is also better than many competing technologies.
To address this market, Otto Wireless Solutions recently obtained ICASA approval for SIMCom’s SIM7080G, a multi-band LTE-M and NB-IoT module solution in SMT format. Provided they are correctly configured, devices designed around this module can run on batteries for many years in applications requiring low volumes of data transfer.
Extensibility is catered for with various interfaces including UART, GPIO, PCM, SPI, I2C and others. The SIM7080G’s combination of performance, security and flexibility make it ideal for machine-to-machine (M2M) applications.
