1.1 Overview
TOBY-L2 and MPCI-L2 series comprises LTE/3G/2G multi-mode modules supporting up to six LTE bands, up to
five UMTS/DC-HSPA+ bands and four GSM/(E)GPRS bands for voice and/or data transmission as following:
TOBY-L200 and MPCI-L200 are designed primarily for operation in America
TOBY-L210 and MPCI-L210 are designed primarily for operation in Europe, Asia and other countries
TOBY-L2 and MPCI-L2 series are designed in two different form-factors suitable for applications as following:
TOBY-L2 modules are designed in the small TOBY 152-pin Land Grid Array form-factor (35.6 x 24.8 mm),
easy to integrate in compact designs and form-factor compatible with the u-blox cellular module families:
this allows customers to take the maximum advantage of their hardware and software investments, and
provides very short time-to-market.
MPCI-L2 modules are designed in the industry standard PCI Express Full-Mini Card form-factor (51 x 30 mm)
easy to integrate into industrial and consumer applications and also ideal for manufacturing of small series.
With LTE Category 4 data rates at up to 150 Mb/s (down-link) and 50 Mb/s (up-link), the modules are ideal for
applications requiring the highest data-rates and high-speed internet access. TOBY-L2 and MPCI-L2 series
modules are the perfect choice for consumer fixed-wireless terminals, mobile routers and gateways, and
applications requiring video streaming. They are also optimally suited for industrial (M2M) applications, such as
remote access to video cameras, digital signage, telehealth, and security and surveillance systems.
