ATEX certified GSM/GPRS module selected for gas metering
In collaboration with u-blox, Pietro Fiorentini has announced the RSE gas meter family for use in residential and industrial areas, where power efficiency, product robustness and reliability are crucial. The meters use the u-blox cellular module, SARA-G350, which is certified according to ATEX, an EU Directive defining the technical requirements and conformity assessment procedures to be applied to equipment deployed in potentially explosive envi...
Ultra-compact cellular module supports 2G and 3G
The SARA-U201 is the smallest cellular module available supporting 2G and 3G. Manufactured by u-blox , it is now available from distributor Alpha Micro. The SARA-U201 is pin and form factor compatible with u-blox’s other region-specific 2G and 3G variants, such as the 2G SARA-G350, also available through Alpha Micro.
Bluetooth low energy 4.2 module brings power efficiency to IoT designs
u-blox has announced the NINA-B1 Bluetooth low energy (Bluetooth Smart) stand-alone module. Compliant to the latest Bluetooth 4.2 specification and certified to global radio type approvals, the module is key to bringing Bluetooth low energy-based IoT designs to market in the shortest possible time.
Industry’s first untethered 3D dead reckoning module
Hailed as the industry's first, the NEO-M8U Untethered 3D Dead Reckoning (UDR) module has been introduced by u-blox. With no connection to the vehicle other than power, the NEO-M8U provides accurate positioning even where GNSS signals are weak or not available by combining multi-GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo) with an onboard 3D gyro/accelerometer.
GNSS receiver modules offer centimetre-level precision
Measuring just 12.2x16x2.4mm, u-blox's NEO-M8P devices are claimed to be the smallest high precision GNSS Real Time Kinematic (RTK) module available based on GPS and GLONASS satellite-based navigation systems. The rover with the u-blox NEO‑M8P‑0 receives corrections from the u-blox base receiver NEO-M8P-2 via a communication link that uses the Radio Technical Commission for Maritime services (RTCM) protocol, enabling centimetre-level position...
Ultra-compact WiFi module suits IoT applications
u-blox has announced the LILY-W1 single band 802.11n 2.4GHz WiFi transceiver module. This ultra-compact host-based module, measuring just 10x14mm is suitable for providing Wi-Fi connectivity to an increasingly broad range of industrial and commercial products with LTE connectivity.
4G LTE maker modem is suitable for M2M applications
TOBY-L2, a u-blox LTE module, has been embedded in the first ever 4G LTE Maker Modem by M2M Circuits, now running a campaign on Kickstarter. The Maker Modem is the only 4G modem designed for the MakerSpace enabling direct cellular connection to single-board computers and microcontrollers for M2M applications.
3G/2G cellular module suits tracking & IoT applications
Measuring just 16x26x3mm, u-blox's 96-pin LGA-packaged SARA-U201 is claimed to be the smallest cellular module supporting both 2G and 3G connectivity. Providing 5-band UMTS, quad-band GSM and having global radio regulatory approvals, the SARA-U201 is suited for a wide range of industrial, automotive telematics and consumer applications that must be able to operate on any 2G or 3G network in the world.
No waste of time: IoT demo debuts at MWC 2016
The latest products and technologies from u-blox will be demonstrated at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona (February 22-25) in meeting room 2C1MR. There will be a demonstration of the NB-IoT Waste Management Route Optimisation. The demo will consist of a "system solution".
Multi-GNSS receivers concurrently track three constellations
Now supporting Galileo, in addition to GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, QZSS and SBAS, u-blox has released a new firmware, FW 3.01, for its M8 concurrent multi-GNSS platform. It can track up to three constellations concurrently and makes use of all SBAS and QZSS augmentation systems at the same time.
