The SC66 is a series of new-generation multi-mode LTE Cat 6 smart modules measuring 43.0mm × 44.0mm × 2.85mm with built-in Android 9.0/10.0 OS, based on Qualcomm’s ARM Kryo™ 260 64-bit octa-core processor, with built-in Adreno™ 512 GPU. This high-performance module supports various multimedia functions, making it ideal for both industrial and consumer applications which require high data rates. The series consists of five variants to meet varied geographical demands, which can be compared via the table above.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology allows the SC66 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, GLONASS, BeiDou, QZSS and SBAS) receiver for positioning.

A wide range of supported interfaces (including LCM, camera, touch panel, MIC, SPK, UART, USB, I2C and SPI) allow the SC66 to serve a wide range of IoT applications including smart POS, smart cash registers, smart home gateways, smart robots, smart wearables, smart safety, PDA & tablets, vending machines, delivery lockers, audio and video recorders, as well as video streaming and entertainment systems.
