Description
Module and ordering identity
SIM7000A is a solder-down cellular module for low-throughput IoT equipment. Select the complete ordering code and firmware for your destination network before designing or purchasing.
The reference photograph is labeled SIM7000A, P/N S2-107H8. This identifies the pictured sample; the supplied P/N, hardware revision, firmware and batch are confirmed in the quotation. Antennas, SIM card, host board and development accessories are not automatically included.
Reference specifications
Source: SIM7000 Series specification V:2020.03, page 2; Hardware Design V1.09. These are module-level reference values, not measured system performance or a current batch inspection.
| Form factor | LCC, 68 pins; 24 x 24 x 2.6 mm. |
|---|---|
| Cat-M1 bands | B2/B4/B12/B13 |
| Cat-NB1 bands | B2/B4/B12/B13 |
| GSM / EDGE | Not listed for this variant |
| Peak data rates | Cat-NB1: 34 kbps downlink / 66 kbps uplink. Cat-M1: 300 kbps downlink / 375 kbps uplink. |
| Supply | 3.0-4.3 V at the module supply; not an external development-board input rating. |
| Temperature | -40 to +85 C reference operating range. Follow the matched hardware guide and thermal design. |
| GNSS | Optional in the family specification. Confirm the exact ordering code, firmware and antenna implementation. |
| Host integration | UART, USB and SIM integration follow the variant-specific hardware guide. Check pin functions, logic levels, power transients and firmware support before layout. |
Variant and design checks
The archived A-variant table specifies B2/B4/B12/B13 and does not list GSM. The current public comparison lists G, E and JC, so the historical A data should be rechecked against the exact quoted revision and current support status. Absence from the comparison is not evidence of discontinuation.
PSM and eDRX depend on network configuration and application duty cycle; a ten-year battery life is not guaranteed for a finished design. Mechanical or AT-command similarities to SIM900/SIM800F do not establish a direct replacement: review power, pins, RF, firmware and migration instructions.
Documents and compliance
SIMCom SIM7000X official product and document center lists SIM7000_Series_SPEC_20240709 and Hardware Design V1.09. The 20240709 document requires manufacturer login and its body was not available for this review. The local three-page V:2020.03 specification is an archived version; the 69-page Hardware Design V1.09 is dated 2021-04-19. These are technical documents, not certificates.
Request the matched specification, hardware guide, firmware notes and independent compliance documents during enquiry follow-up. Manufacturer file listings include certificates and test reports with different model/revision scopes. Labels, historical files and family certification tables do not independently establish the certification or current validity of the quoted module or assembled board.
