Worldwide Quectel EM06 LTE Cat6 Module M.2 Form Factor 4G LTE Module

Quectel EM06 is a series of LTE Advanced category 6 module optimized specially for M2M and IoT applications. Adopting the 3GPP Rel. 12 LTE technology, it delivers M2M-optimized speeds of 300Mbit/s downlink and 50Mbit/s uplink peak data rates. Designed in the M.2 form factor, EM06 is compatible with Quectel future Cat 9 module EM09, Cat 12 module EM12 and Cat 16 module EM16, which will facilitate customers to migrate between different categories in the future.
Quectel EM06 contains 4 variants (EM06-E, EM06-A, EM06-LA and EM06-APAC) which are designed for different target regions and nearly cover all the mainstream carriers worldwide.
Quectel EM06 supports Qualcomm® IZat™ location technology Gen8C Lite (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo and QZSS). The integrated GNSS greatly simplifies product design, and provides quicker, more accurate and more dependable positioning capability.
A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant functionalities (USB drivers for Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 10, Linux, Android/eCall*) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of M2M and IoT applications such as industrial router, home gateway, STB, industrial PDA, rugged tablet PC, video surveillance and digital signage, etc.
