The A7682E module from SIMCom is an LTE Cat 1 module which supports wireless communication modes of LTE-FDD, GSM, GPRS and EDGE. With the phasing-out of older technologies such as 2G and 3G, LTE is now one of the few cellular standards with broad global coverage, making this module an excellent choice for future compatibility. Using LTE, the module can reach downlink rates of up to 10Mbps, and uplink rates of up to 5Mbps. The A7682E adopts an LCC+LGA form factor which is compatible with the SIM800C / SIM868 series, making migration from 2G products to LTE that much simpler. Other features include support for multiple network protocols, driver support for common operating systems (Windows / Linux / Android / etc), software functionality, and access to extensive hardware interfaces (UART / ADC / I2C / GPIO / USB2.0 / etc).
