Raspberry Pi NB-IoT Module HAT expansion board (17693)

TheNB-IoT/Cat-M(eMTC)/GNSS HAT for Raspberry Pi, Based on SIM7080G, Globally Applicable is a telecommunication expansion card (HAT) that has a variety of communication functions: NB-IoT (NarrowBand-Internet of Things), Cat-M (also known as eMTC, Enhanced Machine-to-Machine Communication) and GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System).

With the development of LTE telecommunication technology, 2G/3G networks are gradually disappearing, the future world will be dominated by IoT technologies consisting of low-bandwidth NB-IoT/Cat-M standards and high-bandwidth 4G/5G standards.

This board supports global NB-IoT and Cat-M bands as well as positioning function. With its advantages such as small size, low latency, and wide coverage, it is an ideal choice for IoT applications such as smart tools, asset tracking, remote monitoring, e-health, etc.

Features

• Standard Raspberry Pi 40PIN GPIO extension cable, supports Raspberry Pi series boards
• Supports communication protocols such as TCP/UDP/HTTP/HTTPS/TLS/DTLS/PING/LWM2M/COAP/MQTT
• Supports GNSS positioning (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo)
• Built-in USB interface for testing AT commands, obtaining GPS positioning data, etc.
• UART control connector for connecting to host boards such as Arduino / STM3
• Built-in voltage converter, 3.3V by default, allows switching to 5V via built-in jumper
• SIM card slot, only supports 1.8V SIM card (3V SIM card not available)
• 3x LED indicators, easy to monitor working status
• Transmission rate: 300 3686400 bps
• Normal automatic data rate negotiation: 9600/19200/38400/57600/115200 bps
• Comes with development resources and manual (examples for Raspberry Pi / Arduino / STM32)
