The nRF93M1 are compact, pre‑certified LTE Cat 1 bis modules designed to deliver ubiquitous global cellular connectivity for medium‑range, data‑intensive IoT applications. Supporting up to 10 Mbps downlink and 5 Mbps uplink, nRF93M1 enables higher throughput while maintaining low power consumption in a flexible single‑antenna design.
The nRF93M1 modules integrates Wi-Fi location and cellular eCID location along a set of standard peripherals to easily support external devices, coexistence and efficient system design. Seamless nRF Cloud integration further simplifies development, enabling lower deployment risk, and faster scale up.
This combination reduces system complexity while enabling faster prototyping and deployment.
The nRF93M1 modules is offered in size‑, pin‑, and software‑compatible variants, simplifying global product design:
LTE bands for Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, with corresponding regulatory and mobile network operator (MNO) certifications
The global variant supporting a comprehensive set of LTE bands and certifications for worldwide deployments.
The nRF93M1 Development Kit (DK) is the ideal starting point for evaluation and application development. The nRF93M1 DK integrates the ultra‑low‑power Nordic nRF54L15 as a host MCU, allowing you to develop your embedded application using the Nordic development tools and nRF Connect SDK while using the nRF93M1 for LTE Cat 1 bis connectivity.
Nordic provides complete hardware and software documentation as a reference for your own product design.
