Sequans Communications Monarch 2 GM02SP (Global GNSS)

Monarch 2 GM02SP is an LTE Cat M1/NB1/NB2 and GNSS capable module based on Sequans’ second generation Monarch 2 chip platform. It is a pin-to-pin compatible variant of Monarch 2 GM02S, featuring a very small yet cost-eff ective form factor and embedded low-power GNSS that eliminates need for an external GNSS chipset, and enables intermittent tracking use-cases. The Monarch 2 GM02SP Module delivers significant advantages in performance and power consumption while providing seamless migration from Monarch1 customers because it is based on Sequans’ existing LTE-M/NB-IoT protocol stack.
