Verizon Wireless has certified the ultra-compact TOBY-L100 4G LTE module from u-blox, enabling customers to leverage the Verizion Wireless network to develop IoT and M2M applications. The certification allows customers to design u-blox’s TOBY-L100 LTE modules into devices operating on Verizon Wireless’ 4G LTE network.

Applications using u-blox’ TOBY-L100 module include wireless routers, vehicle infotainment and telematics systems, industrial automation, metering, digital signage and security systems. The module is a fully integrated solution complete with power management, IP stack and USB 2.0 interface that can be easily embedded within an existing application. A mini PCI-express version, the MPCI-L100, is also available for customers with existing devices who want to easily migrate to the more cost-efficient and robust u-blox technology.

TOBY-L100’s small form factor supports u-blox’s nested design philosophy which allows smooth migration to LTE from u-blox’s CDMA, GSM, and HSPA modules. The module is also backed by a team of U.S-based applications engineers, to provide comprehensive technical support. The LTE module delivers ultra-fast data rates and operates in the automotive temperature range from -40 to +85°C. USB drivers for Windows XP and Windows 7, as well as RIL software for Android 4.0 and 4.2 are available free of charge.

The LGA format module measures 22.8x35.6x2.8mm³, allowing for easy manufacturing. An evaluation kit EVK-L10 with the leading evaluation software m-center is also available.
