• Dragino NarrowBand IoT Bee Module (Quectel BC95-G)
• Supports global NB-IoT Bands to be used worldwide
• Is ideal for applications as Smart metering, Alarm, and Automation
• Provides a built-in micro SIM slot

The Dragino NarrowBand IoT Bee Module (Quectel BC95-G) is a standards-based low power wide area (LPWA) technology developed to enable a wide range of new IoT devices and services.

NB-IoT significantly improves the power consumption of user devices, system capacity and spectrum efficiency, especially in deep coverage. The battery life of more than 10 years can be supported for a wide range of use cases.

New physical layer signals and channels are designed to meet the demanding requirement of extended coverage – rural and deep indoors – and ultra-low device complexity.

Initial cost of the NB-IoT modules is expected to be comparable to GSM/GPRS. The underlying technology is however much simpler than today’s GSM/GPRS and its cost is expected to decrease rapidly as demand increases.

NB-IoT Bee is the core module for NB-IoT Shield, with NB-IoT Shield and Arduino, user can study/evaluate and do POC for NB-IoT solution rapidly. The NB-IoT Bee is in a small form factor. it can be used to build the final product directly as well.

It can be used for applications as Smart metering (electricity, gas, and water), Wireless Alarm and Security Systems, Home and Building Automation, Industrial Monitoring and Control, and Long range Irrigation Systems, etc.
