LONDON, Jan. 11, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Telit, a global
enabler of the Internet of Things (IoT), today announced that its
quad-band, dual-mode ME910C1-AU, based on the Qualcomm® MDM9206 LTE
IoT modem, is the first module to receive LTE Category M1 (Cat M1)
certification for operation on Telstra's mobile network.
Certification means IoT integrators and providers looking to deploy
in Australia can quickly start
taking advantage of the reliability and around three million square
kilometers of Telstra's LTE Cat M1 coverage built specifically for
the IoT. For more information on the ME910C1-AU visit:

"This certification is a first in many ways for Telit," said
Yosi Fait, Telit CEO. "The ME910 is
the first to receive Telstra Cat M1 certification; it is the first
regional market launch of the dual-mode Cat M1 and NB1 module
series of the ME910C1; and it is the first IoT module form-factor
in Australia available for all
commercially available cellular standards in the region. With
it, our existing customers integrating or selling products into
Australia using 2G or 3G modules
from the xE910 family, can now simply drop in the new ME910C1-AU
and start testing Cat M1 in a matter of weeks. New projects can
also get to market quickly with assistance from our network of
customer support centers and distributors available in the same
time zone with local presence in a number of metropolitan areas in
Australia."
The ME910C1-AU module is a member of Telit's best-selling xE910
family and can easily be applied as a pin-to-pin replacement for
existing devices based on the family's modules for 2G, 3G, LTE
Categories 1, 3 and 4. With the company's design-once-use-anywhere
philosophy, developers can cut costs and development time by simply
designing for the xE910 LGA common form factor, giving them the
freedom to deploy technologies best suited for the application's
environment. The ME910C1-AU also features optimized power
consumption and optional quad-constellation GNSS support
capabilities. The ME910C1-AU, based on the Qualcomm MDM9206
global multimode modem, is the first LTE IoT technology to receive
Telstra Cat M1 certification.
Industries that demand lower costs, security and extended
product lifecycles now have more options with the Telit ME910C1-AU.
The longevity of the LTE Cat M1 standard and extensive feature set
make it an ideal solution for new and existing applications in
vertical segments like telematics, smart energy and metering,
asset tracking, retail, point-of-sale, security and surveillance,
industrial control and automation, smart home, and smart
buildings.

the industry. For more information about the Telit portfolio
