Industry firsts: world's fastest LTE, and smallest 3G modules
u-blox recently launched the fastest LTE modems on the market: the category 4 TOBY and MPCI LTE modem series. We didn't stop there: introducing the SARA-U2,the world's smallest UMTS/HSPA modules, providing global coverage and IP4/IP6 support.
GNSS satellites provide more than "just" a position; with an on-board atomic clock, precision timing can be extracted for use by many ground-based systems. u-blox provides a line of chips and modules that provide an extremely accurate reference clock for telecom, industrial & infrastructure applications.
EVA-7M: the smallest GNSS module on the market
At only 7 x 7 mm, EVA-7M is truly the smallest standalone GNSS module available. Able to track GPS, QZSS, GLONASS and all SBAS signals, EVA is the ideal solution for cost and space-sensitive designs.
