nRF9160 - What countries will it work in?

[yuriymaliy]

Please tell me about the module nRF9160 indicated that has a category LTE-M/NB-IoT, will it work in LTE networks with cat0, 1, 4. (or categories are compatible protocol, and the category itself affects the power consumption of the device and data transfer rate). Meaning, if I install this module nRF9160, will it work in Ukraine where LTE networks only category 1 and 4.

Hi,

The nRF9160 only supports LTE-M and NB-IoT (Cat-M1 and Cat-NB1).

The SiP is certified globally, and in most regions, so you should be able to use it anywhere there is network coverage.

According to the GSMA, NB-IoT is deployed in Ukraine, though the information might not be up to date.

Best regards,

Didrik
