Telit announced that their ME910C1-WW module is the first module to be certified by AT&T for its recently launched NB-IoT network. The module also operates on AT&T’s complementary LTE-M Low-Power Wide-Area (LPWA) network for the Internet of Things.
The ME910C1-WW enables a wide variety of devices, including smart meters, point-of-sale terminals, industrial sensors, asset management, healthcare monitors and home automation systems. Features such as Power Saving Mode (PSM) and extended Discontinuous Reception (eDRX) enabled by both AT&T LPWA networks make it ideal for IoT applications that require low power, long battery life.
The ME910C1-WW provides reliable connections even when IoT devices are in hard-to-reach locations. The radio frequency front-end (RFFE) engineering provides the module with superior performance across the entire industrial-grade operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.
According to GSMA, till now, 110+ LTE-M and NB-IoT commercial networks have been launched globally. The combination of NB-IoT and LTE-M capabilities into a single multi-mode module will give customers more access to these networks as they deploy IoT globally. Manufacturers will also be able to create modules with a single SKU that will enable enterprise customers to seamlessly manage products across global networks.
The ME910C1-WW supports global LTE bands as well as 2G fallback and is available for use with carriers in North America, Europe, Japan, China, Australia and other geographies. This enables IoT device manufacturers to apply their ME910C1-WW-based designs quickly and cost-effectively to IoT solutions for sale in other countries worldwide.
The ME910C1-WW module is a member of Telit's best-selling xE910 family and can easily be applied as a drop-in replacement in existing devices based on the family's modules for 2G, 3G and all categories of LTE. With Telit's design-once-use-anywhere philosophy, developers can cut costs and development time by simply designing around the xE910 LGA common form factor, giving them the freedom to deploy technologies best suited for the application's environment.
