CQS29X LTE Cat 4 Android Smart IoT Modules


The CQS29X series is part of Cavli's C-Series module family, featuring LTE Cat 4 modules that support data rates of up to 150 Mbit/s downlink and 50 Mbit/s uplink, with 2G fallback. These Android smart modules are equipped with a Cortex A53 quad-core CPU and a built-in Adreno™ 702 GPU, delivering superior graphics, exceptional image quality, and powerful compute performance. Available in global variants with various memory configurations, the series supports multi-constellation GNSS, including GPS, BDS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS, and SBAS. Additional features such as USB 3.1 Type-C/Micro USB, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and FM make the CQS29X ideal for diverse applications like vehicle clusters, e-mobility, telematics, and smart kiosks.

  • CQS290: Powered by Qualcomm's QCM2290 chipset, the CQS290 is optimized for non-automotive IoT applications. It provides reliable LTE Cat 4 connectivity with 2G fallback, making it ideal for use cases like smart kiosks, drone control units, and smart vending machines.

  • CQS291: Targeted at two-wheeler automotive applications, the CQS291 utilizes the QWM2290 chipset and integrates Qualcomm's LA2.1 Automotive Middleware for advanced telemetry and device management. It maintains robust LTE Cat 4 connectivity with 2G fallback, along with similar processing power and GNSS capabilities as the CQS290. However, it is specifically tailored to meet the demands of two-wheeler environments, offering enhanced telemetry for automotive use.

  • CQS292: Designed for four-wheel vehicles, the CQS292 also uses the QWM2290 chipset and includes Qualcomm's LA2.1 Automotive Middleware. It stands out with its L1+L5 GNSS support, including NavIC, providing superior positioning precision and accuracy. While retaining the high-performance CPU and GPU found in other models, it focuses on the advanced needs of four-wheel automotive applications, offering robust connectivity and precise navigation capabilities.

All modules in the CQS29X series offer the option of an integrated eSIM, providing global connectivity through the Cavli Hubble IoT platform for seamless deployments across various applications.
