Quectel RG520N-EB 5G Sub-6 GHz LGA Module

Quectel RG520N-EB is a 5G Sub-6 GHz LGA module optimized specially for IoT and eMBB applications. Adopting the 3GPP Rel-16 technology, it supports both 5G NSA and SA modes with Option 3x/3a and Option 2 network architectures, which makes it backwards compatible with 4G/3G network. It is pin-to-pin compatible with Quectel 5G module RG50xQ series and LTE-A Cat 12 module EG512-EA. The 5G module can meet customers' different application demands for high speed, large capacity, low latency, high reliability, etc.

Quectel RG520N-EB supports Qualcomm® IZat™ location technology Gen9C Lite (GPS, GLONASS, BDS, Galileo and QZSS). The integrated GNSS receiver greatly simplifies product design and provides quicker, more accurate and more dependable positioning capability.

A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces (USB 2.0/3.0/3.1, PCIe 3.0/4.0, PCM, UART, etc.) and abundant functionalities (USB drivers for Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11, Linux and Android) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of IoT and eMBB applications such as business routers, home gateway, STB, industrial laptops, consumer laptops, industrial PDAs, rugged tablet PCs, and video surveillance.
