Datasheet of RM530N Series

Quectel RM530N Series IoT/eMBB-Optimized 5G Sub-6 GHz & mmWave M.2 Module

Quectel RM530N-GL is a 5G module that is specially optimized for IoT/eMBB applications. Based on 3GPP Release 16, it supports both 5G NSA and SA modes. Designed in an M.2 form factor, RM530N-GL is compatible with Quectel 5G modules from the Sub-6-only RM520N series, which facilitates customers’ compatible designs for Sub-6 + mmWave devices and Sub-6-only devices.

The RM530N-GL is an industrial-grade module for industrial and commercial applications only. The RM530N-GL covers nearly all of the main operators worldwide. The module supports Qualcomm IZatT™ location technology Gen9C Lite (GPS, GLONASS, BDS, Galileo, and QZSS). The integrated GNSS receiver greatly simplifies the product design, and also provides quicker, more accurate and more dependable positioning capability.

A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant functionality (USB and PCIe drivers for operating systems Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11, Linux and Android) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of IoT and eMBB applications such as industrial routers, home gateways, CPE, industrial and consumer laptops, industrial PDAs, rugged tablet PCs, video transmission, and digital signage.

Key Features

  1. 5G/4G/3G multi-mode module with M.2 form factor, optimized for IoT and eMBB applications
  2. Worldwide 5G and LTE-A coverage
  3. Both NSA and SA modes supported
  4. Multi-constellation GNSS receiver available for applications requiring fast and accurate fixes in any environment
  5. Feature refinements: DFOTA* and VoLTE (optional)
