LTE-A Cat 12 M.2 Module Quectel EM120R-GL

LTE-A Cat 12 M.2 Module Quectel EM120R-GL
  • LTE-A Cat.12
  • M.2 Form Factor
  • Optimized for eMBB and IoT applications

Quectel EM120R-GL is an LTE Advanced Category 12 module. Adopting the 3GPP Release 14 technology, it supports a theoretical downlink peak data rate of 600 Mbps and a theoretical uplink peak data rate of 150 Mbps. Designed in M.2 form factor, the module is compatible with Quectel LTE-A Cat 6 module EM06, Cat 12 modules EM12-G/ EM121R-GL, which facilitates customers’ migration between different modules.
EM120R-GL is designed for global market and nearly covers all the mainstream carriers worldwide. The module supports Qualcomm® IZat™ location technology Gen9-VT (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou/Compass and Galileo). The integrated GNSS greatly simplifies product design, and provides quicker, more accurate and more dependable positioning capability.
A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant functionalities (PCIe interface/USB drivers for Windows, Linux, Android/optional Built-in eSIM) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of pplications such as industrial router, home gateway, STB, industrial laptop, consumer laptop, industrial PDA, rugged tablet PC, and digital signage, etc.
