Overview

The 453-00011 is a dual-mode wireless module that combines LTE-M/NB-IoT cellular connectivity with Bluetooth 5.0 in a standard M.2 PCI Express Key E card edge form factor. Powered by a Cortex-M4F processor with 1MB Flash and 256kB RAM, it allows developers to run custom applications directly on the module without an external host MCU.

Why Choose This Part

The module offers a wide supply voltage range of 2.2V to 5.5V and features an ARM Cryptocell for hardware-accelerated AES encryption and secure firmware upgrades. Its integrated M.2 card edge design simplifies assembly into existing hardware ecosystems while providing high-speed interfaces like USB and SPI.

Applications

Asset Tracking
Utilize LTE-M for long-range outdoors tracking combined with Bluetooth 5.0 for indoor localization and beaconing.
Remote Industrial Monitoring
Securely transmit sensor data over licensed cellular bands in areas where Wi-Fi or LoRaWAN coverage is unavailable.
Smart City Infrastructure
Low-power NB-IoT connectivity for utility meters or parking sensors that requires deep indoor penetration and long battery life.
