Telit Unwraps New 150Mbps LTE Cat 4 Automotive Smart Module

Telit announced the addition of the LE920A4 LTE Cat 4 smart module to its portfolio of automotive-grade cellular IoT modules. The 150Mbps product addresses automakers’ growing demand for high-speed mobile data connectivity to support applications like advanced diagnostics and infotainment, remote software updates; and is fully compliant to eCall and ERA GLONASS requirements for emerging, mandated European and Russian emergency call systems.

The new module is available in variants compliant with regional regulatory and mobile carrier requirements for cars to be delivered to North American, European and Chinese markets. The LE920A4 is sampling now, shipping later this year and concluding final carrier certifications Q1-2017. The new module will be used in upcoming model year cars to comply with eCall and to leverage planned conclusion of 3GPP Release 10 service rollout by major carriers in these markets.
