Quad-band GSM EDGE Add-on Module, UEXT, USB

Description

Quad-band GSM EDGE Add-on Module, UEXT, USB
MOD-GSM-EDGE
MOD-GSM-EDGE is designed for adding remote monitoring and control via GSM cellular network. With this module, any board that has a UEXT connector (see below) can give you access to its features via the GSM network. MOD-GSM-EDGE also can be connected to a PC directly via USB.
MOD-GSM-EDGE features a SIM700D quad-band (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) GSM GPRS/EDGE module, which covers most GSM networks around the world. The SIM700D supports the EDGE protocol which assures faster data transfer. The GSM antenna is built into the board, so there's no need for an expensive external GSM antenna.
This module can work in stand-alone mode also, but only when the SIM card is without PIN code. In stand-alone mode, MOD-GSM-EDGE requires use of AT commands. It can receive information via GSM, but if you want to do anything with this information, you will need to connect it to an appropriate controller board with UEXT. Choose the controller board based on the needs of your application.
