VIBEQ-3G (3G/HSPA+,Worldwide bands) w/ GPS

VIBEQ is an IoT hardware platform which provides a unique combination of industrial sensor interfaces Ethernet, SPI, I2C, RS232, CAN, GPIO, PWM, ADC), worldwide 3G/HSPA+ connectivity and a low power ARM processor for both industrial machine-to-machine (M2M) and home IoT applications. In an approximately 2x credit card size board, VIBE integrates wireless WAN connectivity with a powerful CPU system based on TI's popular AM335x Sitara ARM Cortex-A8 processors (300MHz to 1GHz options) complemented by 512MB (standard) DDR3 memory and abundant 4GB eMMC FLASH memory.

VIBEQ platform is redesigned to improve and extend the original BeagleBone platform while remaining fully compatible in both hardware and software aspects. This means you can connect any of the 10s of BeagbleBone sensor capes directly to VIBEQ to kickstart your next IoT application in minutes. VIBEQ ships with its own Debian compatible Linux OS specifically modified for IoT applications. You can also use standard Debian Wheezy (or Ubuntu) Linux or even android. We also provide separate Kernal patches and firmware to activate these specific features.

VIBEQ-3GUC20-G comes with 3G/HSPA+ modem for worldwide bands, so you only need a SIM card to start collecting data from the field. VIBEQ can be operated fully on battery power and also support sleep mode for low power operations. It can be remotely woken up using the Modem (by sending a secure SMS). VIBEQ comes with RTC (with separate battery backup) for precise time-stamping of sensor data.

VIBEQ series also features an integrated multi-constellation positioning system.
