RM500Q-AE

RM502Q-AE

Features At A Glance

Designed for IoT/eMBB Applications, support 5G/4G/3G
Full coverage of multi network standards including 5G and LTE-A
Support NSA and SA modes
Integrated multi-constellation GNSS receiver to meet the requirement for fast and accurate positioning in different environments
Support multi functions: DFOTA and VoLTE (optional).etc

M.2 Form Factor

RM50x series adopts the 3GPP Release 15 technology and supports 5G standalone (SA) and non-standalone (NSA) modes. Designed in an M.2 form factor, RM50x series modules are compatible with Quectel LTE-A Cat 6 module EM06, Cat 12 modules EM12-G/EM120R-GL/EM121R-GL, and Cat 16 module EM160R-GL, which facilitate the migration from LTE-A to 5G.

Worldwide Mainstream Carriers Coverage

The RM50x series nearly covers all the mainstream carriers worldwide. Integrated GNSS receiver (supports GPS, GLONASS, BDS and Galileo) greatly simplifies the product design and makes positioning capabilities quicker and more accurate. (RM500U-CN does not support GNSS.)

Built-In Rich Network Protocols

Integrates multiple industry-standard interfaces and supports multiple drivers and software functions (such as Windows7, 8, 8.1, 10, USB/PCIe drivers under Linux, Android.etc), which greatly expands its application in IoT and eMBB fields including Industrial Routers, Home Gateways, Set Top Box, industrial laptops, consumer laptops, Industrial PDAs, Rugged Industrial Tablet PCs, Cameras and Surveillance and Digital Signage.
