Sierra Wireless has announced commercial availability of its first-to-market 5G NR Sub-6 GHz and mm-Wave embedded modules. Based on the industry-standard M.2 form factor, the EM919x 5G modules will enable original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to deploy secure connectivity worldwide at the highest possible speeds with ultra-low latency for mobile computing, routers, gateways, industrial automation, and many new Industrial IoT applications.
Larry Zibrik, Vice President, 5G & Embedded Broadband, Sierra Wireless, feels that 5G is the most technically challenging evolution in the history of wireless, particularly because of the introduction of mmWave. He stated that Sierra Wireless has delivered industry-leading embedded modules, beginning with the first generation of cellular data technologies, and they’re the only partner with the experience to help their customers navigate the complexities of 5G. Industry leaders trust Sierra Wireless to help them get to market on time with secure 5G connectivity and to invest in the expertise required to enable future key features, such as dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) and 5G NR standalone mode for even higher performance.
With support for mmWave, Sub-6 GHz and LTE, as defined by the 3GPP Release 15 standard, Sierra Wireless’ 5G modules will power next-generation devices that deliver high-bandwidth, low-latency applications, including private networks, enterprise networking, edge processing, live streaming, video security, e-gaming, smart factories, robotics, drones, virtual reality, and machine learning. Allied Telesis, Dynabook, LiveU, NEC Personal Computers, and Panasonic are among the many leading OEMs designing their 5G platform to launch with Sierra Wireless’ EM919x modules.
The EM9190 5G NR Sub-6 GHz and mmWave embedded module delivers revolutionary 5G speeds. With automatic 4G and 3G fallback networks, integrated GNSS receiver, and FCC certification for CBRS networks, the module provides reliability, security and flexibility for Industrial IoT designs. The EM9191 5G NR Sub-6 GHz module is also available in M.2 form factor, providing a simple upgrade path to mmWave, as well as the EM7690 LTE Cat-20 module to help facilitate the migration and differentiation between 4G LTE and 5G. Sierra Wireless’ EM919x modules are built on the Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ X55 5G Modem-RF System.
