TCG120-4 – a 4G LTE wireless IO module will be released next week.
The wireless IO module is the successor of the popular TCG120. Unlike its predecessor, the TCG120-4 supports 4G LTE, 3G, and 2G communication and provides data connectivity in LTE-FDD, DC-HSDPA, HSPA +, HSDPA, HSUPA, WCDMA, EDGE, and GPRS networks.
The functionality is generally kept compliant, but with added support for MQTT. The MQTT protocol is widely used for communication between Internet of Things (IoT) devices. You can read more about it on our blog.
Another important addition is GSM geopositioning. Only mobile network information is used to determine the location of the device. The GSM geopositioning is more inaccurate, but it works indoors. This functionality is very useful for tracking mobile facilities – freezers, refrigerated display cases, beverage machines, etc.
For now, the 4G LTE wireless IO module only offers for countries that use the following communication ranges – B1/B3/B7/B8/B20/ B28.
