Enhanced satellite communication module

26 July 2023 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Quectel Wireless Solutions has unveiled its latest innovation in satellite communications, the CC660D-LS module, designed specifically to ensure comprehensive global coverage for seamless connectivity. The CC660D-LS module offers versatile connectivity options, including L-band, S-band, and Band 23 connections. In addition, the module supports 3GPP Release 17 IoT non-terrestrial network (IoT-NTN) connections.

The CC660D-LS module supports two-way communication. It facilitates not only data transmission but also SMS SOS functionality, allowing emergency notifications when needed. Additionally, the module supports IP and Non-IP service networks, ensuring enhanced connectivity and service availability.

The module has low power consumption figures through the implementation of various power-saving modes. These modes include discontinuous reception (DRX), extended DRX (eDRX), and power-saving mode (PSM), enabling efficient energy management. Measuring 17,7 x 15,8 x 2,0 mm, the CC660D-LS features Quectel Enhanced AT Commands, supports SIM/eSIM and offers embedded Internet service protocols, enabling low latency satellite connectivity via UART communication interface.

The module can be effectively utilised across various industries, particularly those that traditionally struggle to maintain connectivity due to remote locations such as mining, smart grids, and oil and gas pipeline monitoring. It is also well-suited for applications in the transportation sector, in smart agriculture, environmental monitoring, and heavy equipment monitoring. The module also has valuable applications in the maritime sector, including vessel connection and maritime buoys.
