Telit has announced that its ME910G1-W1 module has been certified for use on AT&T's LTE-M and narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) networks. Based on Qualcomm 9205 LTE Modem from Qualcomm Technologies, the module is ideal for smart utility metering, industrial sensors, fitness trackers, wearable medical devices and other applications that require long battery life, low module costs, and reliable connectivity even in the most difficult-to-cover locations.
The ME910G1-W1 is a member of Telit's flagship xE910 family. This heritage enables solution architects to upgrade their existing xE910-based designs quickly and cost-effectively with the ME910G1-W1 to take advantage of AT&T's LTE-M and NB-IoT networks. The ME910G1-W1 also is the second Telit module of the xE910 family certified for use on AT&T's LTE-M and NB-IoT networks.
The ME910G1-W1 is compliant with 3GPP Release 14. Key features include Power Saving Mode (PSM) and extended Discontinuous Reception (eDRX) to maximize battery life, and a maximum coupling loss (MCL) of up to +15dB/+20dB to ensure reliable indoor connectivity.
The module is also pre-provisioned with OneEdge, Telit's award-winning integrated software and services with pre-packaged, secure, easy-to-use tools that dramatically simplify design, deployment and management of IoT products and solutions. OneEdge enables zero-touch on-boarding, security built-in at the point of manufacture, simplified enterprise integration and more.
AT&T's NB-IoT and LTE-M networks give device designers, manufacturers, and their customers powerful new options for maximizing reliability and battery life. With the certification of the Telit ME910G1-W1, designers and manufacturers now have a Qualcomm MDM9205-based Telit module choice for taking advantage of those networks. This is the first of several MDM9205-based Telit modules to be approved by AT&T.
