The SARA-S528NM10 expands the company’s cellular portfolio for the satellite IoT market, based on the 3GPP Rel 17 specification for global connectivity.
The demand for cellular global reach is escalating, particularly for IoT applications. Satellite-compatible solutions can bridge that gap.
On this front, u-blox recently launched its first combined 3GPP-compliant terrestrial and non-terrestrial network (NTN) IoT module, the SARA-S528NM10. The standards-based module supports GNSS global coverage with accurate, low-power, and concurrent positioning for IoT use cases. Such application areas include aftermarket telematics, industrial monitoring and control, smart metering and utilities, and fleet management.
