HL7900 Global 5G LPWA Module: Ultra-low Power, Future-Ready Connectivity Made Easy

Contact Sales
The HL7900 5G LPWA module is an advanced solution designed for low-power, long-lasting deployments requiring deep area coverage, combining efficiency, longevity, and security. This ultra-low power module reduces current consumption by up to 80%1, thereby quadrupling the battery life of your IoT deployments. The HL7900 also features integrated GNSS*, and support for 3GPP’s Release 14/15/16/17*, enabling new-generation low-power use cases while providing flexible connectivity options, enhanced coverage, and cost savings. Leveraging Semtech’s 30 years of expertise in low-power solutions and a long-standing partnership with Sony Altair, the HL7900 simplifies and de-risks low-power deployments across critical applications such as smart energy, smart cities, logistics and asset tracking.

Best-in-Class Power Efficiency

The HL7900 enables the next generation of battery-powered IOT devices with revolutionary decreases in power consumption across all operating modes (up to 4x lower than HL78).

Unlicensed Band Radio*

With optional use of a secondary 802.15.4 radio supporting <1GHz and 2.4GHz frequencies, customers can expand their connectivity options and further optimize their BOM by replacing an external wireless MCU.

Device Longevity

With support for 3GPP Releases 14/15*/16*/17*, the HL7900 future-proofs your deployments and enables device longevity.

Edge Processing

With its integrated low-power MCU, the HL7900 can eliminate a host uP and enable a cost- and power-optimized system.

Location Services*

Integrated GNSS receiver with assisted GNSS enables tracking and location-based services. Optional use of Wi-Fi scan is also supported as an alternative to GNSS.

NTN*

Get uninterrupted global coverage with NB-IoT over satellite support.

Private Networks

Band 8 with NAD to enable utilities in the US to deploy their own 900MHz private network.

End-to-End Security

Security keys encrypted are stored in a secure element. FREE firmware over-the-air (FOTA) upgrades future-proof deployments and keep them secure.

Common Form Factor

Compact CF3® design simplifies migration between technologies and enables scalability.

Ready-to-Connect**

Get instant access to our Smart Connectivity to reduce total cost of ownership, strengthen end-to-end security, and simplify operations with a single point of accountability and management platform.

TCP/IP Stack

Embedded stack to easily communicate over the internet supporting a rich set of protocols including HTTP/S, TCP, MQTT, LWM2M, UDP, TLS, DTLS.
