Notecarriers are companion development boards designed to make it easy to prototype and deploy IoT solutions with the Notecard. Notecarrier XM is a small form-factor Notecarrier, only slightly larger than the Notecard itself. The Notecarrier XM is our most minimal Notecarrier, containing essential circuitry for the Notecard and a USB port for USB Serial access to the Notecard. The Notecarrier XM was designed as a low-cost companion to the Notecard LoRa and Notecard WiFi, though it can be used with any Notecard. Unlike other Notecarriers, the Notecarrier XM does not include an external SIM slot. |
Included is a flexible Molex 209142 antenna for use with either LTE or GPS. If you require a dual LTE/GPS antenna, we recommend adding on the flexible LTE+GPS antenna (or you may choose to use your own preferred antenna). Our loose header pins are also included.
Notecarriers require a Notecard to function. The Notecarrier XM is compatible with all available Notecards. See the Notecards section for more details or get started with a Blues Starter Kit.
