Global multi-mode, multi-band solution

The Qualcomm 9205 LTE modem is a multi-band, multi-mode solution with extended RF frequency support from 450MHz to 2.1GHz to enable more than 23 global RF bands. Its high reliability, low latency, and voice support of Rel.14 LTE Cat-M1 (eMTC), along with extended coverage and delay tolerance of Rel.14 LTE NB-2 (NB-IoT), make it a robust, cutting-edge modem solution. And 2G/E-GPRS support is designed to allow for connectivity in areas where LTE IoT is not yet deployed.
