Product Description
Cellular Pi Hat (RAK2013) is a Raspberry Pi 4B compatible cellular communication module. It is aimed at providing a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) connectivity to IoT devices. It has several configuration options of its onboard radio including the Quectel BG96/EG95. It supports the following standards: 4G/LTE, Nb-IoT, CAT-M/CAT1/CAT4 Cellular. Because of its integrated audio amp and codec, it is suitable for Voice over LTE (VoLTE) in carrier network scenarios where HD calls are a requirement. The necessary connectors for each type of operation are conveniently placed on one side of the board in order to provide easy access.
It has a built-in header that adheres to the mikroBus standard. Because of its wide range of supported sensors, it is suitable for applications such as environmental monitoring, presence sensing, etc., that require cellular connectivity.
