FC64E is a series of high-performance Wi-Fi 6/6E and Bluetooth 5.3 LCC package modules launched by Quectel. It can be used to establish WLAN and Bluetooth connections. FC64E supports 2 × 2 + 2 × 2 MIMO, delivering a maximum data rate up to 3000 Mbps. With an ultra-compact size of 18.0 mm × 19.9 mm × 2.1 mm, FC64E optimizes the size and cost for end-products, which fully meets the demands of size-sensitive applications.
Surface-mount technology (SMT) makes FC64E an ideal solution for durable and rugged designs. The low profile and small size of LCC package ensure that it can be easily embedded into size-constrained applications and provide reliable connectivity with these applications. The advanced package and the laser-engraved label with better heat dissipation and indelible markings allow for large-scale automated manufacturing which has strict requirements on cost and efficiency.
Based on a reliable PCIe 3.0 interface, FC64E achieves low-power and high-speed data transmission. Coupled with its compact size, lower power consumption, wide temperature range, higher transmit power and high reliability, the module can meet the requirements of industrial, consumer goods and automotive applications.
