E70N-EU LTE CAT1 module

Introduction

E70N is a compact LTE Cat 1 wireless communication module based on the ASR1605 chipset. It supports global variants (E70N‑CN, E70N‑EU), FDD/TDD LTE, Wi‑Fi scan, and common IoT protocols. The module is designed for small form‑factor integration (LGA 109‑pin) and multimedia/OPEN development in M2M applications.
