SIMCom Launched the Newest 5G modules at MWC Shanghai

With the mass deployment of 5G and the wide application of low-power WANs such as NB-IoT, global Internet of Things (IoT) connections are growing at a high speed. From smart cars and smart homes to enterprise asset management equipment and industrial equipment, widespread connectivity is driving the transformation of information technology from the mobile Internet to the Internet of Everything. The surge in IoT connections is also driving progress in the module industry. During 2021 MWC Shanghai, SIMCom launched the newest 5G modules.

5G module SIM8262G-M2, supports R16, equipped with Qualcomm SDX62 and oriented to the global market

On July 3, 2020, 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) announced the freezing of Release 16 (R16), marking the completion of the first evolving version of 5G standard. The more mature version of R16 will accelerate the development of downstream applications of 5G.

The 5G module SIM8262G-M2 launched by SIMCom supports R16. As a multiband 5G NR/LTE-FDD/LTE TDD/HSPA + module that supports 5G NSA/SA. It is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon X62, which is Qualcomm's new-generation 5G modem-to-antenna solution that supports download speeds up to thousands of megabits for mobile broadband applications. SIM8262G-M2 has powerful scalability and various interfaces, including PCIe,USB3.1,GPIO, etc. It adopts M.2 standard interfaces. The size is 42.0*30.0* 2.3mm. Its AT command is compatible with SIM8202G/SIM8200X-M2 modules, minimizing the investment cost and shortening the time to market for customers.

At present, the Internet of Things is booming. Trillions of new devices will be connected to the Internet. As a new-generation communication technology, 5G will be mainly used in application scenarios requiring high-speed transmission, such as WITMED, distance education, automated driving, etc. As the first 5G communication module that supports R16, SIM8262G-M2 can be widely used in virtual reality, augmented reality, CPE and other terminals to create application scenarios such as Internet of Vehicles, industrial Internet of Things, WITMED, 4K /8K HD videos, etc., greatly conducive to AIoT.

5G module SIM8282G-M2, equipped with Qualcomm SDX62 and oriented to the global market

Based on Qualcomm's fourth-generation 5G modem-to-antenna solution Snapdragon X65, SIM8282G-M2 is a 5G multiband LTE-FDD/LTE-TDD/HSPA+ module, which support NSA/SA. Snapdragon X65 is the world's first modem and RF system that supports the 10Gbps 5G transmission rate and 3GPP Release 16. SIM8282G-M2 equipped with SX65 can cover all major 5G bands including MMW and Sub-6GHz bands and their combinations. FDD and TDD give carriers extreme flexibility through the use of fragmented 5G spectrum assets. Meanwhile, it will have further development in the fields of mobile broadband, computing, extended reality, industrial Internet of Things, 5G enterprise private networks and fixed wireless access. In addition, SIM8280, another 5G module based on Snapdragon X65, will be launched this year.

SIM8282G-M2 has powerful scalability and various interfaces, including PCIe,USB3.1,GPIO, etc. Its AT command is compatible with SIM8202G/SIM8200X-M2 modules, so it can minimize the investment cost and shorten the time to market.
