Business Wire
LTE for IoT chipmaker Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS)
announced that Trackimo, a leader in the GPS tracker market, has
adopted Sequans’ Monarch SiP platform to design several types of
IoT tracking devices with LTE connectivity included. The
operator-certified Monarch SiP is an ultra small and thin,
all-in-one connectivity solution that integrates Sequans’ Monarch
LTE-M/NB-IoT Platform with an RF front-end module in the world’s
smallest form factor.
“Sequans’ Monarch SiP is a powerful solution that simplifies
adding LTE connectivity to our IoT tracking devices,” said Shai
Bar-Levi, CEO, Trackimo. “LTE is essential for wide area tracking
applications and the very small form factor of Monarch SiP is ideal
for adding it to devices where space is constrained. Also, Monarch
SiP’s single-SKU capability gives us all the flexibility we need to
design IoT trackers for any market worldwide. We are using Monarch
SiP to design many types of trackers, including asset trackers,
people and pet wearable trackers, and more, for US and European
markets.”
“Trackimo is a leader in the tracking space and has established
itself as a forward-thinking company with cutting edge tracker
products,” said Danny Kedar, VP of Sequans IoT Business Unit.
“There are many tracker types that need the wide area, low power
capabilities of LTE such as drones, fleets, people and pets, and
Trackimo can get these LTE-enabled trackers to market quickly
thanks to Monarch SiP.”
The feature-rich Monarch-SiP includes an integrated baseband,
SRAM, RF transceiver, RF front-end, passives and power management
in a single 8.8 x 10.8 x 0.95 mm package with proprietary RF
shielding. It is compliant with 3GPP Release 13/14 LTE Advanced Pro
specifications, including VoLTE support, is optimized for LTE UE
categories M1, NB1, and NB2, and operates across broad frequency
ranges (700 MHz to 2.1 GHz) to support global deployment and
roaming capability. Proprietary power management techniques offer
improved battery life. Sequans’ Single-SKU radio design enables
Monarch SiP to operate on any LTE frequency worldwide. Monarch SiP
is operator-certified and available now.
Sequans will be present at MWC Shanghai, June 27-29. Sequans’
CEO, Georges Karam, will be speaking at the GSMA Mobile IoT Summit
on June 28. To set up a private meeting, please contact us at
