Introduction of Products 
        NB96M  Mini PCIe is a series of LTE Cat M1/Cat NB1/EGPRS module adopting standard PCI Express® Mini Card form factor (Mini 
          PCIe). It offers a maximum data rate of 375Kbps downlink and 375Kbps uplink, and features ultra-low power consumption. 
          With a cost-effective SMT form factor of 51.0mm × 30.0mm × 4.9mm and high integration level, BG96 enables integrators 
          and developers to easily design their applications and take advantage from the module’s low power consumption and 
          mechanical intensity. 
          A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant functionalities (USB drivers for Windows 
          7/8/8.1/10, Linux, etc.) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of M2M applications such as wireless POS, 
          smart metering, tracking, etc.  |
