31 July 2026 Computer/Embedded Technology


Quectel Wireless Solutions, has launched its open source Quectel Pi series of single-board computers (SBCs), designed for a broad range of industrial applications. The portfolio currently includes three compact development platforms – the Quectel Pi M1, L1, and H1 boards – engineered for low power consumption, cost efficiency, and full-stack software support. Designed to accelerate prototyping and product development, they are well suited for embedded applications, IoT solutions, robotics projects, and edge computing deployments.

With dimensions of 68,70 x 108,94 x 23,00 mm, the Quectel Pi H1 is powered by the Qualcomm QCS6490 processor and offers numerous interfaces, 8 GB LPDDR4x and 128 GB UFS memory, an Adreno 643 GPU and options to select the Linux, Debian or Ubuntu operating systems. The SBC also supports 2,4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0 and gigabit ethernet connectivity.

Also included in the range is the Quectel Pi M1 and L1 boards, both offering LTE Cat 4 connectivity. The Pi M1 product is powered by the Qualcomm Kryo SM6115 processor and has dimensions of 56 x 85 x 23 mm. This SBC also offers Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0 and gigabit ethernet as well as LTE Cat 4 and the option of GNSS connectivity. The Quectel Pi M1 also offers 4 GB LPDDR4x and 64 GB eMMC memory and the option of Linux, Android or Ubuntu operating systems.

The Quectel Pi L1 board features a 64-bit ARM quad-core Qualcomm QCM2290 processor alongside a rich set of interfaces, a 64-bit Adreno 702 GPU and offering 2 GB LPDDR4X* + 32 GB eMMC memory. It offers LTE Cat 4, 2,4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, and the option of GNSS connectivity. Both the M1 and L1 boards are designed to integrate seamlessly into existing development board ecosystems, enabling straightforward adoption and compatibility with widely used hardware platforms.
