On June 28, 2016, u-blox of Switzerland released the cellular wireless module "SARA-N2" for NB-IoT (Narrow Band IoT) (published in English). "SARA-N2" is the world's first mobile communication wireless module that follows Release 13 of the 3GPP (Third GeneraTIon Partnership Project).
The company has been conducting commercial experiments on smart meters and smart parking lots using NB-IoT from a very early age. It lists several features of NB-IoT: low operating power, and the largest unit in a mobile communication environment. It can support 150,000 devices, and in order to perform excellent performance in places with poor signal such as underground and indoors, the link budget is 20dB higher than GPRS.
“SARA-N2†is designed for smart buildings, smart cities, utility metering, white goods, asset tracking, agriculture and environmental monitoring. It can be used for 10 to 20 years with a single unit of primary battery. The LGA package is 16mm & TImes; 26mm, easy to upgrade based on u-blox GSM, HSPA, CDMA modules, and can be expanded in the future. And the use of licensed private frequency communication to ensure the quality of service, support a maximum downlink speed of 227Kb per second and a maximum uplink speed of 21Kb per second. Moreover, because it supports 3 RF bandwidths at the same time, it can cover almost all parts of the world with only one module.
Samples of "SARA-N2" will be available from the fourth quarter of 2016, and volume production will be scheduled for the first half of 2017.
In addition, regarding NB-IoT, since the completion of standardization by 3GPP, the announcement of the commissioning of the news has continued (see this site report).
Qualcomm also stated on June 27, 2016 (release material) that it is developing low-power, long-term-driven eMTC (enhanced Machine-Type CommunicaTIons, Category M1) and supporting NB-IoT (Category NB- 1) MDM9206 modem.
The module supporting Category M1 with MDM9206 is expected to be available in the first half of 2017. After the launch, the company will immediately provide software updates for Category NB-1.
