- Launch of EM92 Series 5G modules improves connectivity options for DISH Wireless.
- Modules support 68 global carrier bands, allowing for simplified product design.
- Features 3GPP Release 16 capabilities, enhancing security and performance metrics.
- Commercial availability expected by Q3 2022, likely boosting market presence.
- None.
First announced in May of 2021, the EM92 Series 5G modules feature 3GPP Release 16 standard capabilities at a cost-effective price and provide secure connectivity at high speeds with low latency worldwide. The EM92 is ideal for demanding broadband applications such as high definition live video, industrial IoT deployments like machine vision and drones, networking use cases that require reliable broadband communications equivalent to previous wired technologies, and many other new IoT applications.
Being RF-optimized, the modules reduce the complexity of 5G designs and improve global network coverage by supporting more global carrier bands, enabling OEMs, system integrators and other companies to easily integrate 5G connectivity into their products. Customers can make the most of 5G’s high speeds and ultra-low latency while shortening time-to-market, future proofing designs, and ensuring the security of deployment on a worldwide scale.
“For engineers and product managers who want to connect next generation 5G products, the EM92 5G module has been engineered to cater to the most demanding and bandwidth intensive business critical applications,” said
“Sierra Wireless is a trusted partner of DISH,” said
“Sierra Wireless’ 5G modules provide AVIWEST with the fast, low latency and reliable 5G connectivity needed to stream high-definition videos from live worldwide events such as the
EM Series Modules
The EM92 Series of 5G modules aims to make 5G more affordable, while building on the success of the company’s EM91 Series which includes both the EM9190 5G mmWave/Sub-6/LTE New Radio (NR) and EM9191 5G Sub-6/LTE NR standards-based M.2 modules. Both series of modules in Sierra Wireless’ embedded broadband portfolio deliver unprecedented bandwidth and network performance and have been designed to securely connect to 5G networks around the world. Security is designed in at the forefront right from the start of module development to minimize security risks, as well as additional time in certification requirements.
Transforming Industries with 5G
5G’s higher data speeds and capacity, wider coverage, and lower latency are transforming the IoT industry by enabling next-generation computing and edge-to-cloud applications, and enabling the expansion of the mobile ecosystem to new industries such as smart manufacturing, connected healthcare and smart cities.
By 2025, 5G networks are likely to cover one-third of the world’s population and account for as many as 1.2 billion connections according to the GSMA. The impact on the mobile industry and its customers will be profound. It’s no surprise then that the industry is investing heavily in 5G, with mobile operators expected to spend
