5G technology is not just about data transfer speeds. It is intended to replace existing 2G and 4G technologies and become the uniform standard worldwide.
RG500Q-EA includes the Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ X55 5G modem and is ideal for various industrial and consumer IoT applications, including business routers, home gateways, customer premises equipment (CPE), MiFi, industrial IoT (IIoT), industrial laptops, PDAs, video surveillance, digital signage, 4K/8K live streaming and many other bandwidth-intensive use cases.
The Quectel RG500Q-EA supports major frequency bands below 6GHz as well as worldwide LTE-A and WCDMA network coverage, allowing customers to deploy their IoT solutions flexibly in Asia-Pacific, Europe and the Middle East.
Other key features of the RG500Q-EA include:
- LGA form factor, 41×44×2.75mm
- 5G sub-6GHz module, both NSA and SA modes
- DL 4 × 4 MIMO for 5G sub-6GHz and LTE Cat 16
- PCIe 3.0, USB 3.1 and RGMII interfaces
- Multi-constellation GNSS receiver
As a pioneer of IoT innovation, Quectel was one of the first vendors to offer 5G NR modules and has a market-leading 5G portfolio covering both sub-6GHz and mmWave technologies, delivered in LGA and M.2 form factors that are perfectly suited to the demanding requirements of a wide range of IoT applications.
Recently Quectel has joined forces with more than 200 world OEM manufacturers from a variety of industries and conducted a number of sharp tests in NSA (Non-standalone) mode on various types of 5G devices, including CPE, live video streaming and ACPC (AlwaysConnected PC). By the beginning of 2020, more than 200 global OEMs spanning a broad spectrum of industries had chosen to work with Quectel for their next-gen 5G designs.
Quectel has also made breakthroughs in the 5G standalone (SA) sector. At the beginning of 2020, the company completed the first sub-6GHz SA data call in-lab and is currently collaborating with leading telecom equipment manufacturers and carriers to conduct 5G SA live tests. We expect 5G SA features to be available for commercial use in the Q4 of 2020.
The 5G module RG500Q-EA as well as the development boards and the corresponding evaluation kits are currently available to order. Detailed technical information for specific products can be found on our website.
