Waveshare 4G HAT for Raspberry Pi (LTE Cat-4/4G/3G/2G/GNSS)

The SIM7600G-H 4G HAT is a 4G/3G/2G communication and GNSS positioning module, which supports LTE CAT4 up to 150Mbps for downlink data transfer, with low power consumption considering its performance.

You can connect this 4G module to a PC for mobile internet access, or attach it onto Raspberry Pi for more embedded activities like making phone calls, sending SMSs, global positioning, etc.

Check out our guide for using this board with the Raspberry Pi!
