Telit introduces LTE product based on Qualcomm chip

Telit Wireless has announced the expansion of its long-standing relationship with the introduction of a 4G LTE product and the development of variants for the company's top selling 3G modules in the xE910 product family.

The complete portfolio allows Telit to offer form-factor compatible Qualcomm Technologies-based solutions for CDMA, UMTS and LTE radio technologies to address the communications needs of M2M and Internet of Everything (IoE) application developers.

The LE910, based on Qualcomm Technologies' GobiTM MDM9215, will be Telit's first LTE module delivered in the xE910 product family, and the company's second LTE offering, following the LE920 LTE automotive-grade module announced last year, also based on the MDM9215.

The Qualcomm Technologies' chipsets have enabled Telit to build the xE910 family to provide interchangeability between 3GPP2-CDMA (1xRTT, EV-DO) and 3GPP-UMTS (HSDPA, HSPA+) and LTE variants, making the adaptation of customer applications to regional technical requirements quick and easy while minimizing time to market and total cost of ownership.

"The increased scope of our relationship with Qualcomm comes at an exciting time, when we are seeing strong demand from the m2m market for our products and solutions," said Oozi Cats, CEO of Telit.

By expanding our portfolio with products such as the LE910 module we can address the 3G and 4G market which were previously beyond our reach added Cats.

"We are pleased to work with Telit to bring 4G LTE to the CDMA, HSPA and HSPA+ platforms based on certain Qualcomm Technologies' chipsets," said Nakul Duggal, vice president of product management, new markets, Qualcomm Technologies.
