Quectel EC25
IoT/M2M-optimized LTE
Cat.4 Module
Build a Smarter World
Quectel EC25 is a series of LTE category 4 module opmized specially for M2M and IoT applicaons. Adopng the 3GPP Rel.
11 LTE technology, it delivers 150Mbit/s downlink and 50Mbit/s uplink data rates. Designed in the compact and unied form
factor, EC25 is compable with Quectel UMTS/HSPA+ UC20 module and mul-mode LTE EC20/EC21 module, which allows for
exible migraon among them in design and manufacturing.
EC25 contains 7 variants: EC25-V, EC25-J, EC25-A, EC25-AU, EC25-AUT, EC25-AUTL and EC25-E. This makes it backward-
compable with exisng EDGE and GSM/GPRS networks, ensuring that it can be connected even in remote areas devoid of
4G or 3G coverage.
EC25 supports Qualcomm® IZat™ locaon technology Gen8C Lite (GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo and QZSS). The integrated
GNSS greatly simplies product design, and provides quicker, more accurate and more dependable posioning.
A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant funconalies (USB drivers for Windows XP,
Windows Vista, Windows 7/8/8.1/10, Linux, Android/eCall) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of M2M
and IoT applicaons such as industrial router, industrial PDA, rugged tablet PC, video surveillance, and digital signage.
