World’s smallest and thinnest LTE for IoT
connectivity solution, ideal for ultra-compact devices, now ready
for Verizon’s network
Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS) announced that Verizon
has certified its Monarch SiP all-in-one, LTE-M/NB-IoT connectivity
solution. Monarch SiP (system-in-package) integrates Sequans’
Monarch LTE baseband platform with an RF front-end module in the
world’s smallest form factor. Monarch SiP was introduced in late
February and is now listed on Verizon’s Open Development website as
an approved module.
“The certification of the Monarch SiP by Verizon means that IoT
device designers using it can get their IoT products launched on
Verizon’s network quickly and easily,” said Georges Karam, Sequans
CEO. “The ultra small and thin Monarch SiP is one of the most
important LTE connectivity solutions available and it is ideal for
the design of very small IoT devices, including wearables,
trackers, and sensors, where size is of paramount importance. The
highly-integrated Monarch SiP sets a new paradigm for size as
compared to any LTE module in the market today and we are very
pleased to now have it certified by Verizon.”
The feature-rich Monarch SiP includes an integrated baseband,
SRAM, RF transceiver, RF front-end, passives and power management
in a single 8.8 x 10.8 x 0.95 mm package with proprietary RF
shielding. It is compliant with 3GPP Release 13/14 LTE Advanced Pro
specifications, including VoLTE support, is optimized for LTE UE
categories M1, NB1, and NB2, and operates across broad frequency
ranges (700 MHz to 2.1 GHz) to support global deployment and
roaming capability. Proprietary power management techniques offer
improved battery life. Sequans’ Single-SKU radio design enables
Monarch SiP to operate on any LTE frequency worldwide.
