SC20 Series  

Multi-mode Smart LTE Module 
with Wi-Fi & Bluetooth 

 

SC20 series is Quectel’s new generation of multi-mode Smart LTE Cat 4 module. It contains five variants with built-in Android 
OS: SC20-E, SC20-A, SC20-AU, SC20-J and Wi-Fi & BT only version SC20-W. Additionally, it contains five variants with built-in 
Yocto Linux OS: SC20-EL, SC20-AL, SC20-AUL, SC20-JL and Wi-Fi & BT only version SC20-WL.  

SC20 series module delivers maximum data rates of up to 150 Mbps downlink and 50 Mbps uplink based on LTE network, and        
supports  wireless  communication  via  IEEE  802.11a/b/g/n  and  BT  4.2  LE.  It  is  an  ideal  solution  for  both  industrial  and           
consumer  applications  requiring  high  data  rates  and  high-speed  Internet  access.  The  module  is  backward-compatible  with 
existing EDGE and GSM/GPRS networks, ensuring connection even in remote areas devoid of 3G or 4G coverage.  

SC20 series module supports multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology. The use of multiple antennas at the receiver 
end at the same time and on the same frequency band greatly minimizes errors and optimizes the data speed. The module 
also combines high-speed wireless connectivity with embedded multi-constellation and high-sensitivity GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, 
Galileo and BeiDou) receiver for positioning.  

A rich set of interfaces (such as LCM, Camera, Touch Panel, MIC, SPK, UART, USB, I2C)  extend the applicability of the module 
to  a  wide  range  of  M2M  applications,  such  as  MID,  PND,  POS,  router,  data  card,  in-vehicle  solutions,  smartphone,  digital    
signage, security and industrial PDA.
