This whitepaper introduces Quectel SC20 and SC200 smart modules, detailing their features, hardware, software, communication capabilities, and use cases in…
Quectel smart modules are small, ready-to-use devices that integrate computing, connectivity, and storage to simplify IoT development. They combine application-agnostic hardware and software into a single unit, reducing design complexity and time-to-market compared to discrete component designs. The document explains how these modules mitigate risks through rigorous testing and provide a unified solution for various industries.
The paper specifically details the SC20 and SC200 series. The SC20 is a cost-effective, multi-mode LTE Cat 4 module with built-in Android OS, supporting data rates up to 150Mbps downlink. The SC200 is an upgraded version supporting Android 10, featuring a Qualcomm ARM Cortex-A53 processor and Adreno GPU for high-performance multimedia functions, with speeds up to 300Mbps downlink.
