EC20 LTE 4G GNSS Modem Dimensions
LTE 4G GNSS modem is a type of cellular modem that supports LTE (Long-Term Evolution), a 4G standard for mobile broadband communication, and GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System), a satellite-based positioning system. It allows devices to connect to the internet and access location services. LTE provides high-speed data connectivity, enabling devices to download and upload data quickly. GNSS provides accurate location information, which can be used for navigation, mapping, and other applications. LTE 4G GNSS modems are used in a variety of devices, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and cars. They allow these devices to connect to the internet and access location services even in areas where there is no Wi-Fi coverage.
