Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS) today introduced an LTE
IoT module that offers device makers a quick and easy solution for
connecting their IoT devices to the Orange LTE-M Network. The
Monarch GMS01Q module, a third-generation module from the Orange
Live Booster program, is based on Sequans’ industry-leading Monarch
LTE-M/NB-IoT chip platform and includes an LTE-optimized
transceiver and Sequans’ Single-SKU™ technology to support LTE
bands worldwide for universal roaming and deployment capability.
The Monarch GMS01Q comes with a pre-integrated Orange SIM card with
a flexible data plan that gives Orange IoT customers a
cost-effective and complete embedded connectivity solution for the
design of IoT devices including sensors, meters, buttons, and
trackers of all kinds.
“The Monarch GMS01Q module gives Orange customers everything
they need to quickly develop and deploy devices on the Orange
network in one ultra-compact and high-performance solution,” said
Didier Dutronc, EVP and GM of Sequans’ massive IoT division. “The
new module is ideal for many types of IoT applications, including
healthcare wearables, industrial trackers, and numerous devices for
personal, smart home and smart city applications.”
Monarch GMS01Q Module Features
- 3GPP Release 13 LTE Cat M1; upgradable to Release 14

- Orange SIM inside
- Flexible Orange data plan
- Certified by regulatory agencies GCF, RED

To speed development, developers can employ an evaluation kit
for the Monarch GMS01Q built in collaboration with
STMicroelectronics. The Monarch GMS01Q-STMOD is an expansion board
providing cellular LTE Cat M1 connectivity to any STM32 Discovery
kit or STEVAL-STWIN IoT development kit. The kit provides a turnkey
solution for connecting the board to any cloud server, including
Orange Live Objects, thanks to a dedicated and optimized library,
including AWS, GCP, and Azure, and using it, developers can easily
prototype their applications. The Orange Live Objects cloud server
allows for remote management of data collected over the air using
Monarch GMS01Q.
“Our shared passion for bringing innovation to the IoT market
has enabled us to deliver this ‘one-stop-shop’ module which will
undoubtedly turbo-charge the pace at which object makers can
transition from prototyping to industrialization,” said Philippe
Lucas, EVP, Customer Equipment and Partnerships, Orange.
“Today, Orange is a leading provider of LTE-M connectivity,
which is fast becoming the de facto solution to solve the complex
challenge of developing, connecting and deploying industrial
devices at scale. Orange is delighted to support Sequans to drive
further adoption of this outstanding technology through this new
module, embedded with our connectivity.”
