Product Description
Enabling a new generation of massive low-cost IoT device
deployments numbering in the hundreds of thousands or
millions, the ME310G1 is the Category M1/NB2 evolution
of the brand new Telit xE310 product family. Exceeding
market demands for optimized power consumption and
enhanced quality of coverage, Cat M1/NB2 devices are
specifically tailored for low data throughput IoT applica-
tions. The ME310G1 creates brand-new IoT-enabled busi-
ness models by addressing connectivity and battery life
concerns for the growing number of OEMs, integrators
and device designers looking to dramatically increase the
number of data points they can collect from their opera-
tions and customers via IoT devices. IoT is now possible at
a scale and cost point that makes many previously unviable
deployments ROI positive.
Compliant with 3GPP Release 14, the ME310G1 LTE UE
CatM1/NB2 module enables increased power saving for IoT
applications using Power Saving Mode (PSM) and extended
Discontinuous Reception (eDRX), allowing devices to
wake up periodically, while delivering only the smallest
amounts of data necessary before returning to sleep mode.
Enhanced coverage, enabled by maximum coupling loss
(MCL) of up to +15dB/+20dB, provides superior in-building
penetration compared to earlier cellular LTE standards.
LTE CatM1/NB2 devices are optimized in cost, size and
power consumption compared to higher UE categories.
3GPP Release 14 further improves these features by add-
ing techniques to increase the data rate for LTE-M and
NB-IoT. These advantages make the ME310G1 ideal for
enabling quick implementation of LTE technology where
low cost and low power consumption are more relevant
than high speed.
The ME310G1 enables enterprises to deploy new small
footprint designs across many application areas including
asset tracking, health-care monitoring, smart metering,
portable devices, industrial sensors, home automation,
and many others benefitting from low-power and low data
rate capabilities.
Key Benets
• Small size and low power consumption
• Optimized for ease-of-design, high yield and low-cost
manufacturing
• Compliant to 3GPP Release 14 Cat M1/NB2, tailored for
IoT devices
• Ideal solution for medical devices, fitness trackers,
industrial sensors, smart meters, and other
mass-production, mass-deployment applications.
• Module sizes ranging from 300 down to below 200 mm2
on a fixed 94-pad LGA footprint enable a “design once,
use anywhere” IoT device strategy.
Family Concept
The xE310 exible perimeter footprint family includes
pin-to-pin compatible 2G (GE310-GNSS) and CatM1/NB2
(ME310G1) modules, enabling integrators to design a
single PCB layout and deploy any combination of 2G and 4G
technologies.
Telit’s miniature xE310 family delivers high business and
technical value for OEMs, integrators and IoT device de-
signers interested in low power, low cost, small footprint
devices to take digital transformation initiatives to the next
level across their organization.
The 94-pad LGA footprint delivers a comprehensive set
of features with a surplus of reserve pads to ‘futureproof’
the end-device with additions like Bluetooth connectivity
and GNSS. The exible perimeter space allows modules
in the family to go in sizes from around 300mm2 to below
200mm2. The xE310 is designed to allow for single as
well as multi technology products such as combination
cellular+GNSS and other solutions in xed and mobile
applications for smart utilities, home and commercial
automation, telematics, POS, and smart cities
