October 19 2017 - 8:00AM
Qorvo® (Nasdaq:QRVO), a leading provider of innovative RF solutions
that connect the world, today announced that SIMCom Wireless
Solutions, a leading global Internet of Things (IoT) supplier, has
selected Qorvo to provide the RF solution for its new NB-IoT
modules.
The SIMCom SIM7000A and SIM7000C modules target high-volume
cellular smart metering and asset tracking applications that use
low-power wide-area networks based on the new NB-IoT and LTE CAT-M1
(eMTC) standards. At least 11 operators have already launched
NB-IoT or LTE CAT-M1 networks, with a further 14 networks planned,
according to the Global mobile Suppliers Association (GSA). ABI
Research predicts that low-power wide-area networks will be the
world’s fastest-growing connectivity technology through 2025,
supporting four billion IoT devices by that date.
The Qorvo NB-IoT RF solution optimizes performance and low power
consumption in high-volume, low-power IoT applications. Designed
for global use, it helps IoT manufacturers reduce cost by
minimizing the need to regionalize their products. The solution
includes high-efficiency power amplifiers and a low-loss
switch.
Eric Creviston, President of Qorvo’s Mobile Products Group,
said, “IoT is strategically important for Qorvo, and we are excited
to support SIMCom, one of the world’s leading IoT suppliers. The RF
solution in the highly anticipated LTE SIM7000A and SIM7000C
NB-IoT/eMTC modules expands our portfolio of IoT offerings and
