Description
The BG95-M3 Mini PCIe is a multi-band LTE Cat M1/Cat NB2/EGPRS module which achieves maximum downlink rates of 588Kbps and uplink rates of 1119Kbps. It has a highly integrated and cost-effective standard PCI Express? Mini Card form factor measuring 51.0mm × 30.0mm × 4.9mm which allows integrators and developers to benefit from its mechanical intensity and low power consumption and design their applications with ease.
A rich set of internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant functionalities (e.g. USB drivers for Windows 7/8/8.1/10, Linux etc.) allow the module to serve a wide range of IoT applications such as wireless POS, smart metering, asset tracking and more.
