Conexio Stratus Pro nRF9151 is an IoT development kit based on Nordic Semi nRF9151 system-in-package (SiP) with LTE-M/NB-IoT, DECT NR+, and GNSS connectivity designed for battery-powered cellular-connected products such as asset trackers, environmental monitors, smart meters, and industrial automation devices. It’s offered with the “Stratus Pro Expansion Dock” allowing users to add WiFi 6 through an nRF7002 expansion board and various other modules via Grove, Qwiic, MikroBus, and Seeed Studio’s XIAO connectors or sockets. It’s an update to the original Conexio Stratus Pro based on nRF9161 introduced last June with a very similar feature set. Let’s have a deeper look to find out any potential differences between the two versions of the devkit. Conexio Stratus Pro nRF9151 specifications (with changes highlighted in bold or strikethrough): System-in-package – Nordic Semi nRF9151 SiP MCU – Arm Cortex-M33 clocked at 64 MHz with 1 MB Flash pre-programmed MCUBoot bootloader, 256 KB RAM Modem [...]

Quectel has recently released the BG770A-SN industrial IoT module which comes in an ultra-compact form factor and supports both NTN and TN and features GNSS for positioning functionality. This 5G-ready module also supports iSIM and utilizes the GEO satellite constellation for worldwide coverage. Additionally, the module offers integrated security elements (ISE) and can operate in between the industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Previously we have written about the Quectel BG95-S5 5G NTN + LTE IoT module which supports NTN satellite (L-band and S-band) plus LTE Cat M1, Cat NB2, and eGPRS as fallback options, designed for applications where continuous connectivity is critical. We have also written about the Quectel CC660D-LS IoT-NTN module, which is an IoT NTN module designed specifically for Skylo’s satellite network. The new BG770A-SN module is a little different from the previous two because it supports LTE Cat M1, LTE Cat NB1/NB2, and NTN over [...]
