COM.NB-IoT

SKU:M031-B

Description

COM.NB-IoT is a stackable multi-band NB-IoT wireless communication module with built-in SIM7020G communication module. The module supports PSM and eDRX low power consumption modes.

The COM.NB-IoT module has a wide coverage signal. Compared to GSM, NB-IoT has a strong gain, which also enables the product to have wireless communication capabilities in locations such as basements.

The module has a DC power input and can provide 5V-12V power supply through an external power supply. In order to facilitate the user to configure the pin, the DIP switch is used to set the pin. The SIM7020G module is the optimal solution for low latency, low power consumption, and low throughput applications. It is very suitable for IoT applications such as metering, remote control, asset tracking, remote monitoring, telemedicine, and ride sharing.

Notice

When used with the FIRE main control, due to the PSRAM pin conflict, please switch the DIP switch pins of the module base to TX(0/13), RX(5/15), and the device can use USB/ External DC is used for power supply.
When used with Core2 series main control, due to the different order of the base pin array, COM.X base pins TX(16), RX(17) correspond to the actual pins TX(14), RX of the Core2 main control (13) The equipment needs to use external DC for power supply.

The module base has a DC power input interface. Please strictly follow the input range (5-12V) to prevent damage to the module when using this interface to connect to the power supply. The internal power DIP switch can adjust the voltage level of the internal terminal VIN to adapt to different modules.
