Frequently asked questions
Choose Cat 1 bis for devices that need more bandwidth, such as gateways, telematics units and devices that send larger payloads. For low-power sensors that report periodically, LTE-M draws less power and reaches further into buildings.
Under the 3GPP LTE Cat 1 bis specification, up to 5 Mbps uplink and 10 Mbps downlink. Actual rates depend on signal quality and the carrier.
The module supports 21 LTE bands for global coverage. See the coverage map for supported regions.
No. The module does not include a GNSS receiver. For positioning, choose a Jooni module with GNSS built in.
The cellular radio is FCC and ISED certified, which simplifies certifying your connected product. Your finished product may still require its own testing, depending on its other components.
