The Notecard is a device-to-cloud data pump that reduces the complexity of building connected solutions with secure, reliable cellular. As an embeddable system on module (SoM), the Notecard can be used with any microcontroller for both greenfield and retrofit projects using your own design, or one of our custom designed Notecarriers.
With just two lines of code you can send data to the cloud in minutes, no complex device registration or provisioning required. With a powerful JSON-based API, you can program the Notecard over USB, or control it from your preferred microcontroller or single-board computer using one of our open-source firmware libraries. Connect from your preferred host to the Notecard using Serial or I2C.
The Notecard is designed to work with a cloud service for ingesting and processing device data. Notehub.io provides secure device connectivity, project and fleet management, and simple routing to 3rd party cloud services. Alternatively, host your own Device service based on our open source reference implementation.

Blues has expanded its line of Notecards to include a suite of coverage options so you can tailor the device to your use case.
With this expansion, you can select a device that provides either wideband (CAT-1) or narrowband (CAT-M and NB-IoT) connectivity paired with a Global, North American, or European regional coverage model.
To add to this dramatically increased coverage, we’ve included a dual-embedded SIM option that can expand coverage to additional countries and more coverage in those countries while giving you improved reliability and carrier support.
But no matter which device you use, you’ll still experience the same unmatched engineering experience, and have free access to Notehub to route your data to the cloud.
