Product Description

I425-AFFA is an LTE Cat 4 module optimized specially for M2M and IoT applications. Adopting the 3GPP Rel-11 LTE technology, it delivers maximum data rates up to 150 Mbps downlink and 50 Mbps uplink. I425-AFFA is backward-compatible with existing WCDMA networks, ensuring that it can be connected even in remote areas devoid of 4G coverage.

I425-AFFA supports Qualcomm® IZatTM location technology Gen8C Lite (GPS, GLONASS, BDS, Galileo and QZSS). The integrated GNSS greatly simplifies product design, and provides quicker, more accurate and more dependable positioning.

A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant functionalities (USB serial drivers for Windows 10/11, Linux, Android) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of M2M and IoT applications such as industrial router, industrial PDA, rugged tablet PC, video transmission, and digital signage.
