Telit GE866-QUAD

The GE866-QUAD is an ultra-compact GSM/GPRS module featuring a miniature 15 x 19 mm LGA footprint, making it the smallest in Telit's 2G module portfolio. This quad-band (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) communication module is built on the latest 2G core technology, ensuring long-term availability for extended lifecycle applications worldwide.

Designed for space-constrained M2M applications, the module is ideal for wearable technology products, security alarm systems, automated meter reading, and Point-of-Sales (POS) terminals. The robust LGA package enables easy integration and automated mass-production manufacturing while keeping costs low.

The GE866-QUAD offers comprehensive voice capabilities with both analog and digital audio interfaces, supporting multiple voice codecs (HR, FR, EFR, AMR) with superior echo cancellation and noise reduction. It operates on battery-friendly 1.8V GPIOs and features extremely low power consumption, with idle mode drawing only 0.9 mA at DRX=9.

As a System in Package (SiP) platform, it includes an embedded Python script interpreter with 800 kB of non-volatile memory for user scripts and 1 MB RAM for the Python engine. The module supports Over-the-Air firmware updates through Premium FOTA Management and provides full TCP/IP stack access via AT commands.

Operating across an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, the GE866-QUAD delivers Class 4 (2W) output power at 850/900 MHz and Class 1 (1W) at 1800/1900 MHz. It includes 7 I/O ports, UART serial interface with autobauding up to 115,200 bps, and holds CE, GCF, FCC, IC, and PTCRB certifications for global deployment.
