Quectel 5G RG500L series

The RG500L is a series of 5G sub-6GHz LGA modules optimized specially for IoT and eMBB applications. By adopting 3GPP Release 15 technology, the module supports both 5G NSA and SA modes. It supports Option 3x, 3a, 3 and Option 2 network architectures and is backwards compatible with 4G/3G network.

The RG500L is an industrial-grade module for industrial and commercial applications only. It includes 2 variants, the RG500L-EU (for use in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Oceania and Brazil) and RG500L-NA (for use in North America). The module also combines high-speed wireless connectivity with an embedded multi-constellation and high sensitivity GNSS (GPS/BDS/GLONASS/Galileo) receiver for positioning.

The RG500L has a quad-core CPU @2GHz, and is integrated with a network hardware accelerator and VPN hardware accelerator, which allows the module to support a wide range of IoT and eMBB applications such as 5G wireless routers, CPE, MiFi, business routers, and home gateways.
