New u-blox LTE modules

Supporting LTE category 4 download speeds of up to 150 Mbit/s and upload of 50 Mbit/s, u-blox’s new Toby-L2 and MPCI-L2 modem series is said to support high-bandwidth automotive, networking and video applications with 2G and 3G fallback. The ultra-compact LTE modules with UMTS/HSPA+ and GSM/EDGE, GPRS fallback are suited to vehicle infotainment systems, tablets, notebooks, ruggedised mobile terminals and high-speed M2M applications such as digital signage, remote security and video systems, where backwa

Supporting LTE category 4 download speeds of up to 150 Mbit/s and upload of 50 Mbit/s, 602 U-Blox’s new Toby-L2 and MPCI-L2 modem series is said to support high-bandwidth automotive, networking and video applications with 2G and 3G fallback.

The ultra-compact LTE modules with UMTS/HSPA+ and GSM/EDGE, GPRS fallback are suited to vehicle infotainment systems, tablets, notebooks, ruggedised mobile terminals and high-speed M2M applications such as digital signage, remote security and video systems, where backwards compatibility with 3G and 2G networks is desired.

The TOBY-L2 module in a 152-pin LGA package supports data and Voice-over-LTE (VoLTE) with circuit-switched fallback, as well as in-band modem for emergency call services  (eCall). The MPCI-L2 (mini-PCI Express card) supports data only. Both modules integrate dual IPv4 and IPv6 stacks.

    The second stage of the EC’s HeERO project, which aims to address some of the issues surrounding the eCall system, has just got underway. Jason Barnes reports. As the European Commission (EC)’s Har­monised eCall European Pilot (HeERO) project progresses into its second stage, ‘HeERO 2’, significant progress has already been made in addressing the technological and institutional issues relating to the pan-European deployment of an eCall system based around the new ‘112’ universal emergency telephone number.

    Dave Marples of Technolution argues that the continuing development of tolling-specific onboard equipment is leading us up a blind alley. We should, he says, be looking to realise universal platforms with universal application. The near-future automobile contains information systems of a sophistication to rival a jet airliner of only a few years ago, yet is 'piloted' by a considerably less well-trained individual of highly variable mental and physical capacity, and operated in a hostile, unpredictable and p

The UK government has recently been going to some lengths to paint a picture of a nation embracing a future of digital technology – understandably given the economic concerns arising from exiting the European Union. In December last year, however, the UK National Infrastructure Commission (NIC) put down a somewhat different marker for where the UK is now in terms of mobile c
