TT Electronics launches connectivity kit with LTE Cat M1/NB-IoT

The kit is designed for software developers who are charged with reducing R&D risk and fast-tracking their IoT application development.

“The S-2CONNECT platform helps users streamline the secure connection of products and systems, and enables data-led business decisions, delivering benefits like predictive and preventative maintenance, carbon footprint reduction, and other efficiency improvements,” says TT’s Kjell Karlsson.

The Kit includes the S-2CONNECT Creo system-on-module (SOM), an evaluation board, and accessories, and comes with a 3-month cellular subscription.

S-2CONNECT Creo SOM is an embedded system-on-module platform based on the Linux operating system for building industrial IoT products.

It delivers a communication bridge for true real-time sensing and positioning data.

Creo SOM offers multiple industry standard interfaces suitable for a wide range of applications such as automation, asset tracking, mobile healthcare, and broader industrial IoT and is pre-certified for Europe, UK, US, and Canada.

S-2CONNECT Evaluation Board (EVB is a tool intended to be used by developers of application code for the S-2CONNECT Creo system on module board. It features interfaces via drive circuits and connectors, interfaces via pin headers, power supply, man-machine interaction, and Raspberry Pi hat interface.

The kit comes with USB cable, Ethernet cable, LTE antenna, GNSS antenna, SD card, 6 Jumpers for 2.54 mm headers, and power supply with interchangeable plugs.

Creo SOM can communicate with any server system via cellular network. It uses LTE/NB-IoT/ CatM, with 2G-fallback for global coverage. An embedded SIM with (extendible) 3 months connectivity subscription is included.

Software Development Kit (SDK) is available online.
