LTE Advanced/5G Data Card
The Telit FN990A40 and FN990A28 data cards enable the
next generation of state-of-the-art 5Gdata cards. They
feature sub-6-only technology with LTE, WCDMA and
GNSS support. These data cards lay the foundation for
businesses worldwide to future-proof IoT, enterprise
applications and video. They leverage 5G and Gigabit LTE
benefits immediately.
The industrial-grade M.2 form factor is suitable for many
high-performance and bandwidth-intensive enterprise
and industrial applications. Use cases include:
• Fixed wireless access
• Enterprise routers and gateways
• Indoor and outdoor CPE
• Professional broadcasting and surveillance
Designed for global usage, the FN990A40 and FN990A28
incorporate support for all scenarios prescribed by 3GPP
Release (Rel) 16 5G deployments, including:
• Non-stand-alone (NSA) LTE-5G New Radio (NR)
dual connectivity (EN-DC)
• Dynamic spectrum sharing between LTE and 5G
• Full 5G NR stand-alone (SA) mode
The FN9900A40 and FN990A28 leverage the fourth-
generation Qualcomm Snapdragon X65 and Snapdragon
X62 5G Modem-RF system’s feature set.
• The FN990A40 data card is based on Snapdragon
X65, targeting high-tier market needs.
• The FN990A28 data card is based on Snapdragon
X62, targeting mid-tier market needs.
These data cards support the latest 5G deployments and
all major sub-6 GHz frequency bands, providing
maximum deployment flexibility.
• Supports 5G sub-6 FDD and TDD for global
deployment
• Supports SA and NSA operations and 5G core
network Opt. 3a/3x and Opt. 2 for full network
compatibility
• Latest generation 4G and 5G Rel 16
• 4G Cat 20 up to 7xCA for FN990A40
• 4G Cat 19 up to 5xCA for FN990A28
• Intraband and interband UL CA supported on 4G
networks for improved throughput performance for
uplink-centric applications (e.g., surveillance
cameras and 4K/8K video streaming)
• 3G HSPA+ Rel 8 for fallback to legacy networks
• Standard M.2 (NGFF) data card form factor
• Support for PCIe Gen 3 and USB 3.1 Gen 2 for
maximum application design flexibility
• Dedicated/shared (switchable) RF path/connector for
GNSS L1 to allow total flexibility in the design phase
and low losses whenever high sensitivity is required
• Internal GNSS L1 LNA allows the use of less
expensive passive antennas, lowering the total cost of
ownership
