NimbeLink NL-SW-LTE-QBG96-B Skywire™ 4G/LTE/3G/2G Cat M1/NB1 Cellular Modem
Add robust cellular connectivity to your M2M devices with scalable radio technology with Skywire line of modems including HE910 based HSPA+ solutions. Extensive experience in designing and building embedded product solutions makes the NimbeLink Skywire® embedded cellular modem the smallest on the market. It uses the popular Skywire interface and supports multiple GSM bands and fallback capability minimizing costs of hardware and network access. The module is designed for volume production and is intended for OEMs to embed into end equipment designs.
The Skywire® Global 4G LTE Cat M1 embedded modem is purpose-designed for IoT applications, particularly those requiring location-based functionality. Based on the Quectel BG96 module, it has full FCC, IC, and carrier end-device certifications, which can save users months of testing and tens of thousands of dollars in cost. Like all Skywire modems, the QBG96 is among the smallest embedded modems in the industry, and is compatible with a wide range of Skywire development kits and microprocessor shields, helping to accelerate product development and prototyping.
LTE Cat M1 modems have the lowest power requirements of any cellular modem type, making them ideal for battery operated, mobile, or off-grid applications. Depending on the application, they may be able to run for years unattended and without requiring a battery replacement or recharge.
