H&D Wireless SPB432

SPB432 is a complete WLAN/BT-module with integrated EMC shield, ready for integration in a M.2 Key E slot. The size and pinning is according to NGFF M.2 standard size 2230. It is using H&D Wireless module SPB228 that enables a cost efficient ultra-low power, high performance and feature rich client solution. It provides up to 866.7 Mbit/s data rate when operating in the 2x2 Multi-User MIMO OFDM mode and up to 11 Mbit/s data rate when operating in the DSSS/CCK mode.

SPB432 is based on NXP88W8997.
