Telit, a global enabler of the IoT, announced that its ME910C1-WW is the first module certified by AT&T for its recently launched Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) network. NB-IoT is a Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) radio technology standard developed by 3GPP to enable a wide range of cellular devices and services. The ME910C1-WW also operates on the carrier’s complementary LTE-M Low-Power Wide-Area (LPWA) network for the Internet of Things.

The ME910C1-WW has a wide range of usage such as smart meters, point-of-sale terminals, industrial sensors, asset management, healthcare monitors and home automation systems. ME910C1-WW is an ideal candidate for IoT applications that require low power, long battery life, reports Embedded Computing Design.
The ME910C1-WW provides reliable connections even when IoT devices are in hard-to-reach locations. The radio frequency front-end (RFFE) engineering provides the module with superior performance across the entire industrial-grade operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.
“The Telit ME910C1-WW is already certified for use on AT&T’s LTE-M IoT network, and now it’s the first module certified for its new NB-IoT network,” said Manish Watwani, Chief Marketing and Product Officer, Telit. “These firsts highlight our commitment to enabling IoT device designers, manufacturers and their customers to take advantage of AT&T’s latest and greatest network technologies.”
The ME910C1-WW supports global LTE bands as well as 2G fallback and is available for use with carriers in North America, Europe, Japan, China, Australia and other geographies.
