Overview

Quectel RG255C is a series of 5G Redcap Sub-6 GHz LGA module. Adopting the 3GPP Rel-17 RedCap technology, with features of 5G LAN*/ URLLC/ Slicing, the module supports a theoretical peak data rate of 223 Mbps in the downlink and 123 Mbps in the uplink. The module supports LTE Cat 4 and 5G Sub-6 SA mode, and is backward compatible with Rel-15 and Rel-16 networks. The module is partially compatible with Quectel 4G module EG2x series modules with smaller sizes, which can meet customers’ different application demands for medium speed, large capacity, low latency, high reliability, etc., and is convenient for customers to design.

RG255C series module is an industrial-grade module for industrial and commercial applications only.

RG255C series module contains three variants: RG255C-GL, RG255C-NA and RG255C-EU. It supports Qualcomm® IZat™ location technology Gen 9VT (GPS, GLONASS, NavlC, BDS and Galileo). The integrated GNSS receiver greatly simplifies product design and
provides quicker, more accurate and more dependable positioning capability.

A rich set of Internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces (USB 2.0, PCIe 2.0, PCM, UART, SGMII, SPI, etc.) and abundant functionalities (USB drivers for Windows 8.1/ 10/ 11, Linux and Android) extend the applicability of the module to a wide range of RedCap applications.
