Model : HL7900

The HL7900 5G LPWA module is an advanced solution designed for low-power, long-lasting deployments requiring deep area coverage, combining efficiency, longevity, and security. This ultra-low power module reduces current consumption by up to 80%1, thereby quadrupling the battery life of your IoT deployments. The HL7900 also features integrated GNSS*, and support for 3GPP’s Release 14/15/16/17*, enabling new-generation low-power use cases while providing flexible connectivity options, enhanced coverage, and cost savings. Leveraging Semtech’s 30 years of expertise in low-power solutions and a long-standing partnership with Sony Altair, the HL7900 simplifies and de-risks low-power deployments across critical applications such as smart energy, smart cities, logistics and asset tracking.
