FGH100M is a long-range, low-power Wi-Fi HaLow module launched by Quectel, which complies with the IEEE 802.11ah standard. Wi-Fi HaLow is an open, standard Wi-Fi technology operating in the license-exempt Sub-1 GHz range.

FGH100M operates in the 850–950 MHz working frequency band with a channel width of 1/2/4/8 MHz. Its maximum physical rate is 32.5 Mbps①, and its maximum output power is 21 dBm theoretically. Based on the Sub-1 GHz frequency band, the module has greater coverage and penetration performance, extending the reach of smart home or smart city networks and enabling users to control IoT devices in a radius of 1 km.

FGH100M has a low-power design and supports large-capacity access, and enables simultaneous access of up to 8191 devices to the same Wi-Fi access point theoretically, which is more suitable for the access requirements of large-scale IoT devices.

With its ultra-compact package size of 13.0 mm × 13.0 mm × 2.2 mm, FGH100M optimizes and effectively reduces end-product size and design cost, and fully meets the demands of size-sensitive applications.
