OREANDA-NEWS. Telit Communications PLC (AIM: TCM, "Telit," the "Group"), a global enabler of the Internet of Things (IoT), has received certification from Verizon for another of its LTE modules for use on Verizon's 4G LTE network. Verizon was the first wireless service provider to enable CAT-1 operation, having launched the technology across its LTE network in 2015.

Oozi Cats, Telit's Chief Executive, commented:

"This is another important development for us in North America, as it now gives our customers two Cat-1 modules to choose from for their M2M/IoT applications on Verizon's 4G LTE network."

Telit's single-mode LTE CAT-1 IoT module (LE910-SV1) supports LTE bands 2, 4 and 13. It is a member of Telit's best-selling xE910 family and can be applied as a drop-in replacement in existing devices based on the family's 2G and 3G models.

Supporting peak data rates of 5Mbps upload and 10Mbps download, the certified module is ideal for developers and integrators looking to migrate existing North American 2G or 3G IoT devices to LTE, or build new IoT solutions requiring lower LTE speeds, while leveraging cost savings associated with CAT-1.

The LE910-SV1 is a member of the xE910 form factor family, which features a common uniform 28.2 x 28.2 x 2.2mm LGA package, providing long-life with cost-optimised operation for the integrated solution.
