EVK-R8 overview
The EVK-R8 kit is a powerful and easy-to-use tool that simplifies the evaluation of u-blox LENA-R8
series multimode modules.
The following evaluation kits are available with u-blox LENA-R8 modules (see
•
The EVK-R8001 evaluation kit, for evaluation of LENA-R8001 modules supporting LTE Cat 1bis
and 2G cellular radio access technology
•
The EVK-R8001M10 evaluation kit, for evaluation of LENA-R8001M10 modules supporting LTE
Cat 1bis and 2G cellular radio access technology, and also supporting the concurrent reception of
up to 4 GNSS systems with the integrated u-blox UBX-M10050-KB GNSS receiver
All the EVK-R8001 and EVK-R8001M10 evaluation kits are herein identified as EVK-R8.
