Quectel BG95-S5 Satellite Communication Module

Quectel BG95-S5 is a 3GPP NTN (Non-Terrestrial Network) satellite communication module which supports 3GPP Rel-17 (loT-NTN) at S-band (B256/B23) and L-Band (B255*) frequencies for satellite communications, also with multi-mode support for LTE Cat M1/Cat NB2/EGPRS and integrated GNSS. With an ultra-compact form factor of 23.6mm × 19.9mm × 2.2mm, it is a perfect choice for size sensitive applications.

With a cost-effective SMT form factor and high integration level, the BG95-S5 enables integrators and developers to easily design their applications and take advantage from the module’s low power consumption and mechanical intensity. Its advanced LGA package allows fully automated manufacturing for high-volume applications. A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant functions extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of M2M applications such as wireless POS, smart metering, tracking, and wearable devices.
