LTE CAT-4 modules Supported in Cellular Library?

Libraries

Hi,

I would like to know if it is possible to use the FreeRTOS Cellular Library to interface a 4G LTE CAT-4 module ( SIM7600E) ?
As per the documentation, the library is supporting only CAT-M1 modules ?

Please not that in our project use case, the bandwidth requirements are very less. Even a CAT-M would have done the job, but due to global semiconductor shortage we had to choose a CAT-4 module.

Any help is highly appreciated!

Thanks,
Vinu

Hello @vgk13 ,

The cellular library supports

and it can be ported to other modems. Please refer to porting documentation here.

Thanks @pvyawaha . I hope it can be ported irrespective of the modem technology.

Yes you should be able to port it irrespective of modem technology.

Could this module work with a USB LTE Cat4 modem interface?

Which module are you talking about? If you want to know if you can use the cellular library to communicate over USB (as opposed to over UART), yes you can - the cellular library requires the application to supply an implementation of the comm interface and you can implement this comm interface for USB.
