The RM255C is one of our newest and most advanced RedCap modules – Software Engineer Vladimir Sopic explains more in this short NPI video

The RM255C is an M.2 module based on 3GPP Release 17 RedCap (reduced capacity) technology which supports 5G SA modes and is backwards-compatible with the 4G network. The module supports a theoretical peak data rate of 150Mbps downlink and 50Mbps uplink, while also supporting advanced 5G features such as URLLC and power saving.

The module is compatible with Quectel’s LTE-A Cat 6 modules from the EM06 series, Cat 12 modules EM12-G / EM120K-GL / EM121R-GL / EM120R-GL, Cat 16 module EM160R-GL, and 5G modules RM500Q / RM502Q series, which facilitates customers’ ease of migration.

RM255C is designed for the global market and covers nearly all the mainstream carriers worldwide. The module supports L1+L5 precise and power-optimized positioning. The integrated GNSS greatly simplifies product design, and provides quicker, more accurate and more dependable positioning capability.

A rich set of internet protocols, industry-standard interfaces and abundant functionalities (PCIE 2.0/USB 2.0/Linux) allow the module to serve a wide range of applications such as industrial automation, smart cities, smart energy, wearable devices and mid-speed mobile broadband devices.
