Description
This powerful cellular shield for Arduino supports the LTE CAT-M and NB-IoT technology as well as multi-GNSS positioning. Its ultra-low power consumption is perfect for battery- or solar-powered IoT devices and it’s compatible with almost any microcontroller and development platform.
* Plug-in compatible with Arduino Uno/Mega/Leonardo and easy wiring for any 1.8-5V microcontroller like ESP8266, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi if wired externally
* Wiring documentation and Arduino code examples for AVR, ATSAMD21, ESP8266, and ESP32
* LTE CAT-M1 and NB-IoT support. SIM7000C, SIM7000E, and SIM7000G versions additionally support 2G (GSM/GPRS) and 2.5G (EDGE)
* Uplink speed up to 375kbps, downlink up to 300kbps
* Several shield versions for different regions of the globe
* Ultra low power (7.4uA in lowest state with a 3.7V LiPo battery)
* On-board 3.7V LiPo battery charging
* Supports SMS, TCP/IP, PPP, and FTP/HTTP/SSL
* Integrated multi-GNSS (GPS, GLONASS) with 2.5 meter accuracy
* Built-in electronic file system (EFS) for saving data
* Micro USB for AT commands and diagnostics
* Extra I2C header for convenience
* SIM7000 module power and network status LEDs
* Convenient u.FL antenna connectors
Additional notes:
* Full product documentation and example code found on Github: https://github.com/botletics/SIM7000-LTE-Shield
* How to get network connection: https://github.com/botletics/SIM7000-LTE-Shield/wiki/Connecting-to-Network
* This kit does not include a 3.7V LiPo battery or SIM card, which are required for proper operation
* Due to chip shortage, this version does NOT currently have the on-board MCP9808 temperature sensor
* SIM card must support LTE CAT-M or NB-IoT! The Hologram.io SIM card works great in the USA
* Stacking female headers require basic soldering
