  • Both simultaneously

  • Guaranteed time of product life (10y?)--> if qualcomm cancels they will cancel as well.they will replace it as well.

  • Module without GNSS?

  • Precision of builtin GNSS?

  • Effect of 1 or 2 (receive diversity antenna) Antennas?

  • What are expected data rates and reception coverage?

  • Difference formfactor? LCC / LGA

  • Difference LTE FDD / TDD (Frequency / Time Division Duplexing)

  • What chipset is used within module?Qualcomm 9X07

  • What is advantage of Quectel eG25-g compared to other modules?

  • Samples available?--> yes

GNSS:

Standalon required!

EG25-G --> precision up to 10m can happen quite often

Why Cat4 --> 4k video feed

Why international

ISO16494 --> automotvie

Min quantity: 10k pieces.

Lead time 26 weeks

Prototypes 20 modules no problem.

Distributors:

Package Quantity -- 250

Import is difficult! Distributors have solved that problem

-->Tekmodul (munich germany) good support, also with antenna design. Quectel can help as well with Antenna design (Stephan from Quectel)

Wholesale < 30$ for 1k+ and 10k+

Alternative

  • EC200 (ASR chipset) save $5 roughly

Certification

Test in lab

CE is available for the module itself
