UC15 Mini PCIe is the latest Quectel UMTS/HSDPA module featuring a maximum data rate of 3.6Mbps downlink and 384Kbps uplink. It is designed to provide customers with global network coverage on the connectivity of HSDPA/WCDMA, and it is also fully backward compatible with existing EDGE and GSM/GPRS networks through multiband combination of dual-band WCDMA and dual-band GSM.
The tiny profile of 51.0×30.0×4.9mm in standard Mini PCIe form factor and highly integration level enable integrators and developers to easily design their applications and truly benefit from low power consumption and convenient Plug and Play Function.
With an extended temperature range from -40°C up to 80°C, UC15 Mini PCIe functions reliably in extreme environments for use outdoors or inside at sites that lack cooling and heating systems.
A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces (USB/UART/Analog Audio/LED_WWAN) and abundant functions (USB drivers for Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows CE, Linux, Android) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of commercial and industrial M2M applications.
Key benefits
