LPWA Specification V1.2

Quectel BG600L-M3
LTE Cat M1/Cat NB2/EGPRS Module
BG600L-M3 is a mul-mode LPWA module supporng LTE Cat M1/Cat NB2/EGPRS and integrated GNSS. It is 3GPP Rel. 14
compliant and oers maximum data rates of 588 kbps downlink and 1119 kbps uplink under LTE Cat M1. It features ultra-low
power consumpon by leveraging the integrated RAM/ash as well as the ARM Cortex A7 processor supporng ThreadX,
achieving up to 70% reducon in PSM leakage and 85% reducon in eDRX current consumpon compared to its predecessor.
BG600L-M3 boasts a comprehensive set of hardware-based security features and enables trusted applicaons to run directly
on the Cortex A7 TrustZone engine. Addionally, BG600L-M3 is compable with Quectel GSM/GPRS/GNSS module MC60,
providing customers a convenient soluon for network migraon.
With a cost-eecve SMT form factor of 18.7 mm × 16.0 mm × 2.1 mm and high integraon level, BG600L-M3 enables
integrators and developers to easily design their applicaons and take advantage from the module’s low power consumpon
and mechanical intensity. Its advanced package allows fully automated manufacturing for high-volume applicaons. A rich set
of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces (USB/UART/PCM/STATUS) and abundant funcons (e.g. USB drivers for
Windows 7/8/8.1/10, Linux and Android, etc.) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of M2M applicaons
such as tracking, wireless POS, smart metering and wearable devices.
