The ME310G1-W2 from Telit Communications is an LTE Cat M1/NB2 Module that operates in the 410 and 450 MHz bands. It delivers an uplink data rate of up to 1 Mbps and a downlink data rate of up to 588 Kbps. This 3GPP Rel. 14 compliant module enables increased power savings for IoT applications using Power Saving Mode (PSM) and extended Discontinuous Reception (eDRX). The deep indoor propagation of the 410/450 MHz frequency makes this module ideal for indoor devices and its extensive coverage range allows the provisioning of wireless services over large areas with a minimal number of base stations. It is designed for quick implementation of LTE technology applications where low cost and low power consumption are more relevant than high speed.
The ME310G1-W2 is controlled by the OneEdge software suite with integrated deployment and management tools to address the complexity expected with the exponential growth in the number of IoT devices. It requires a DC supply of 3.8 V and can be controlled via 1.8V SIM, USB 2.0 HS, UART, SPI, and I2C interfaces. This module is available in a 94-pin LGA package that measures 15 x 18 x 2.6 mm and has an antenna interface. It is ideal for smart metering, smart grid, smart city, smart agriculture, mPERS, mission-critical services, and public safety applications.
