9205S

The 9205S Modem lets devices connect easily and move across cellular and satellite networks to provide coverage for terrestrial and non-terrestrial IoT applications.

The Qualcomm® 9205S Modem allows devices to easily and seamlessly connect between cellular and satellite networks making it ideal for IoT applications that require hybrid mobility solutions. We’ve followed 3GPP Release 17 standards for ubiquitous global coverage that gives devices the freedom to move to and from almost anywhere and provides connectivity for a range of IoT use cases. Plus, options to integrate the Qualcomm Aware™ Platform and/or use a Qualcomm-certified NTN antenna provide even more insight and reliability across complex environments.
