R410 modem deprecation
Due to the global silicon chip shortage causing the inability to obtain certain key components there will be some changes in the available product SKUs.
The u-blox SARA-R410M cellular modem (LTE Cat M1 for the United States, Canada, and Mexico) has become unavailable. This will require a change to the SARA-R510S-01B cellular modem. This will not require a change to your hardware, however it will require a Device OS update to version 2.3.0 or later.
The following SKUs are affected:
Device | Old SKU | Replacement SKU |
---|---|---|
Boron | BRN404, BRN402 | BRN404X |
B-Series SoM | B404, B402 | BRN404X |
R510S Advantages
- u-blox long term support and roadmap stability
- 3GPP Release 14 LTE Cat M1 vs. Release 13 on the R410
- Additional band support
