Description
Module and ordering identity
SIM7000E-N 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 SIM7000E-N, P/N S2-1073R. 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

| Form factor | LCC, 68 pins; 24 x 24 x 2.6 mm. |
|---|---|
| Cat-M1 bands | Not supported in Hardware Design V1.09 |
| Cat-NB1 bands | B3/B8/B20/B28 |
| GSM / EDGE | Not supported in Hardware Design V1.09 |
| Peak data rates | Cat-NB1: 34 kbps downlink / 66 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 | Not marked as supported for E-N in Hardware Design V1.09; do not copy SIM7000E GNSS features. |
| 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
SIM7000E-N is distinct from SIM7000E. Hardware Design V1.09 identifies E-N as NB-IoT only, with B3/B8/B20/B28, without Cat-M1 or GSM. The earlier Cat-M1 heading and 375 kbps claim did not apply to that table column. E-N is not a separately listed variant in the current public product comparison; obtain its current ordering and lifecycle information with your enquiry.
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 The local three-page V:2020.03 specification is an archived version; the 69-page Hardware Design V1.09 is dated 2021-04-19.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.
