Recently, SIMCOM’s LTE Cat.1 module SIM7670G has successfully obtained certifications from PTCRB, IC, AT&T, and T-Mobile. With this, the module now holds 10 major global certifications, including CE, FCC, GCF, KC, ROHS & REACH, TELEC, and JATE. This signifies that the SIM7670G meets performance standards across various regional markets, including Asia, Europe, North America, and South America, supporting stable and efficient Cat.1 terminal operations locally and helping customers rapidly enter the global market.
As a key model in SIMCOM’s LTE Cat.1 series, the SIM7670G is developed based on the Qualcomm QCX216 platform and supports LTE-FDD/LTE-TDD communication modes, with uplink speeds up to 5Mbps and downlink speeds up to 10Mbps. The SIMCOM LTE Cat.1 Module adapts to various network frequency bands globally. The module features SIMCOM’s classic 24242.4mm LCC+LGA packaging, making it compact and easy to integrate into small IoT devices, saving space.
The SIMCOM SIM7670G also boasts strong compatibility, matching the shape of SIMCOM’s Cat.1 module A7670C, NB/Cat.M modules SIM7000, SIM7070 series, and 2G modules SIM800 series, easing the transition from 2G and NB/Cat.M products to LTE Cat.1. It includes various network protocols and USB drivers for the three major operating systems (Windows, Linux, Android), and its software functions and AT commands are compatible with the A7670C series, simplifying development and cost.
In terms of power management, the SIM7670G excels with deep sleep (DRX) technology, adjusting power levels based on network conditions and application needs. With DRX parameters set to 0.64 seconds, the module’s power consumption is as low as 230uA, maintaining a low-power sleep state for most of the time and briefly waking every 0.64 seconds for network monitoring or essential tasks. This precise power management extends device battery life, particularly in IoT applications where long-term operation with limited power changes is required.
Additionally, the SIM7670G integrates a rich set of industrial-standard interfaces, including UART, USB, I2C, and GPIO, offering flexibility for customer configuration. It is widely applicable in remote information processing, metering, monitoring devices, industrial routers, and remote diagnostics. The module also includes a multi-constellation GNSS receiver supporting GPS, Beidou, GLONASS, Galileo, meeting terminal device location needs.
Since its release, the SIM7670G has been recognized for its high compatibility, high integration, low power consumption, and small size, and has been popular in mid-to-low-speed applications. The anticipated North American operator certifications have been successfully completed with AT&T and T-Mobile, and Verizon certification is in the final stages.
Looking ahead, SIMCOM will continue to develop and release more full-form modules to meet global and industry-specific demands, complete with comprehensive certification systems, contributing to the digital transformation of industries and laying a solid foundation for customers to expand into global markets.
