LONDON, June 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Telit,
a global enabler of the Internet of Things (IoT), today announced
that the LE910-NA1, a LTE Category 1 (Cat 1) IoT module, is
certified for use on T-Mobile's 4G LTE network and has been added
as an option for T-Mobile's IoT Access packs, which combine simple
IoT pricing with industry-leading Cat 1 chips.
Telit's LE910-NA1 seamlessly enables a wide range of industrial
and consumer IoT applications, including asset tracking, alarm
systems, telematics devices, retail applications, smart utility
meters and more.
Availability of the Telit LE910-NA1 certified by T-Mobile solves
a common problem for developers and integrators. Frequently, design
teams developing new IoT devices focus on the products' functional
requirements but underestimate the complexities of wireless network
compliance, such as costly RF equipment, testing and certification
schedules. With the pre-certified LE910-NA1 developers eliminate
these steps, resulting in faster time to market, lower development
costs, and world-class performance and reliability.
"We are proud to support T-Mobile's IoT Access packs with
Telit's top LTE Cat 1 module— the popular LE910-NA1," said
Dennis Kelly, vice president of
Telit Americas. "The availability of this fully-certified module
enables device makers to leverage the standard's current and future
capabilities and accelerate the launch of IoT products powered by
T-Mobile's nationwide 4G LTE network."
With T-Mobile's IoT Access packs, new and existing customers can
get everything they need – including modules and data – to develop
the next great IoT solution. For a limited time, new and existing
T-Mobile IoT customers can get unlimited data at 64kbps for just
$20 per year per device, with up to
$16 per certified module covered via
a bill credit from T-Mobile upon activation.*
"Bringing a connected IoT solution to market can be complicated
– but T-Mobile is turning the industry on its head," said
Doug Chartier, senior vice
president, MVNO, M2M and IoT at T-Mobile. "With our low-cost IoT
Access packs, customers can focus on developing their products for
our 4G LTE network instead of worrying about managing their data
usage."
The LE910-NA1 is a dual-mode LTE Cat 1 IoT module positioned for
developers and integrators looking to integrate future-proof low
category LTE technology into their designs. Benefits of the
technology include significant bandwidth, longer product lifecycle,
cost savings, and an easy migration path to LTE from 2G and 3G in
existing IoT devices. With speeds of 5 Mbps upload and 10
Mbps download, this model supports LTE bands 2, 4, 5, 12 and
13 and 3G bands 2 and 5. The LE910-NA1 is a member of Telit's
best-selling xE910 family of pin-compatible modules, which serve as
a drop-in replacement in devices that are based on the family's 2G
and 3G models.
