The SC200R is a series of new-generation multi-mode LTE Cat 4 smart IoT modules measuring 40.5mm × 40.5mm × 2.8mm with built-in Android OS, based on Qualcomm’s ARM Cortex-A53 64-bit quad-core processor and built-in Adreno™ 308 GPU. This high-performance module supports various multimedia functions, making it ideal for both industrial and consumer applications which require high data rates. The SC200R consists of five variants to meet various geographical demands, which can be compared via the table above.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology allows the SC200R to greatly minimize errors and optimize data speeds. The module also combines high-speed wireless connectivity with embedded multi-constellation and a high-sensitivity GNSS (GPS, BeiDou, GLONASS and Galileo) receiver for positioning.

A wide range of supported interfaces (including LCM, camera, touch panel, MIC, SPK, UART, USB, I2C, SPI and more) allow the SC200R to serve a wide range of IoT applications including edge computing, cloud servers, AI robots, smart POS, home gateways, wearables, PDAs and tablets, vending machines, delivery lockers, law enforcement equipment and in-car entertainment systems.
