Geared toward private LTE for critical infrastructure, the 900
MHz FCC certification for Anterix's spectrum represents another
important milestone for Telit in the support of utilities,
transportation and other critical infrastructure industries. The
ME310G1 and ME910G1 modules are already FCC-approved for both LTE-M
and NB-IoT across numerous MNO networks in the U.S. And now, the
U.S. 900 MHz broadband service band is part of Telit's global
configuration and FCC certifications.
"Today's announcement further expands the utility industry's
ability to leverage the tremendous benefits of 900 MHz private LTE,
a foundational element of a reliable and secure electric grid,"
said Carlos L'Abbate, Chief Technology and Engineering Officer,
Anterix. "As Anterix continues to collaborate with Telit to help
achieve their vision beyond these milestone agreements, we believe
this collaboration will also drive the utility sector's collective
adoption of 900 MHz private LTE."
The ME310G1 and ME910G1 modules are based on the
Qualcomm® 9205 LTE modem for worldwide LTE-M and NB-IoT
operations including the U.S. 900 MHz band. Additional
certifications for the U.S. 900 MHz band are in process for Telit's
modules based on the Qualcomm® 9207 LTE modem.
"The low-power Qualcomm 9205 LTE modem is purpose-built and
ideally suited for critical infrastructure applications with
on-chip compute, communication and security capabilities," said
Vieri Vanghi, Vice President, Product Management, Qualcomm Europe,
Inc. "We are pleased to work with Anterix and Telit in enabling
reliable and secure private LTE networks based on the Qualcomm 9205
LTE modem for LTE-M and NB-IoT operations."
"Securing FCC certification of our ME310G1 and ME910G1 modules
for use on Anterix's spectrum provides customers with expanded
offerings for private IoT networks and is an important achievement
to unlock private LTE for critical infrastructure applications,"
said Jitender Vohra, Director of
Product Marketing, North America,
Telit. "We've been touting this as the year of massive IoT and with
a growing number of utilities, transportation and other critical
infrastructure industries deploying IoT applications and services,
we are pleased to be collaborating with Anterix to provide a
beneficial solution."
