EW: REDCAP

(option to have two receive antennas)

• Lower transmit power support

• Lower-order modulation – optional 256-QAM

• Optional support for half-duplex FDD

modules adopt the LGA +LCC form factor with various interfaces, measuring 30 x 30 x 2.5mm. The AT commands of SIM8230 modules are compatible with SIMCom’s SIM7600/8200/8260 series 4G/LTE devices which also minimises costs for customers and shortens time to market. SIM8230 modules deliver up to 220Mbps (DL)/100Mbps (UL) for Sub-6G SA, or 200 Mbps (DL)/75Mbps (UL) for LTE. Modules are available in different versions for use in different regions. Due to their high efficiency, security and flexibility, the modules suit various IoT and M2M applications including indoor CPE, MIFI, and industrial control. We expect RedCap technology and our 5G RedCap modules to be ideally suited to low-cost mobile broadband applications, and because they are pin-for-pin compatible with our 4G/LTE modules, designers can

Moreover, 5G radio technology is a move in the right direction for utilising the frequency spectrum – possibly the world’s newest identified ‘natural resource’ – more effectively, so opening up 5G for a much wider range of applications in the IoT space is a very good thing. To support customers looking to implement a RedCap 5G platform and enable them to get up and running quickly and easily, SIMCom is amongst the first to offer a RedCap module. SIMCom is committed to providing a variety of cellular wireless modules and solutions and maintains a 5G laboratory spanning more than 5,000 square metres, staffed by a senior R&D team of nearly 1,000 professionals. SIMCom’s SIM8230 is a multi-band 5G NR/LTE-FDD/LTE-TDD module which supports R17 5G SA. With a rich set of protocols and interfaces including PCIe, USB2.0 and GPIO, the module delivers great flexibility and integration. SIM8230

effectively plug and play with exiting designs that they may have already.
