SONY ALTAIR’S PRODUCTS

The 3rd generation, ALT1350 is a highly integrated wireless 5G Low-Power Wide-Area (LPWA) System-on-Chip (SoC) designed to meet the evolving and growing needs of the cellular IoT market. 

Supporting 3GPP release 15/16/17 LTE-M/NB-IoT, this is the world’s first cellular IoT SoC that combines additional unlicensed spectrum communications protocols,satellite connectivity (NTN), and cellular connectivity all in a single chipset. 

By integrating these advanced features, ALT1350 brings faster development, lower power consumption, smaller form factor, and reduced costs. These updates make it an ideal fit for optimizing a range of IoT use cases while accommodating emerging trends in the LPWA market.

The ALT1250 modem is a highly-integrated dual mode LTE-M/NB-IoT modem with 2G optional fallback, engineered specifically for cellular IoT applications that prioritize battery life and small form factors. 

This advanced modem solution features an integrated SIM (iSIM), MCU, and rich application layer, enabling miniature module sizes as small as 100mm². It is 5G ready and offers optional satellite connectivity (NTN), ensuring it can evolve alongside your IoT service and cellular network.

With built-in security features, the ALT1250 modem delivers reliable and secure connectivity throughout your device’s lifetime. 

The ALT1255 modem is a highly integrated, cost optimized NB-IoT modem with 2G fallback. This 5G-ready modem incorporates an integrated SIM (iSIM), advanced MCU, and rich application layer, all backed by a reliable GSM/GPRS fallback modem. The built-in iSIM eliminates barriers related to cost, size, and power while providing an additional layer of security.

The low-power cellular IoT ALT125x family of modems share a common software architecture, modem application, networking layer, and APIs, for seamless integration within the Altair product suite.

The ALT1160 modem is a highly integrated LTE CAT-1 modem that delivers downlink speeds of up to 10 Mbps and low power consumption. Designed specifically for IoT applications, this advanced modem features an on-chip power management unit, Double Data Rate (DDR) memory for optimal performance and speed, and a low-power application layer. 

With a robust security framework for customer applications and a rich set of host, peripheral, and sensor interfaces, the ALT1160 modem is ideal for multiple use cases, including wearable tech, video surveillance, smart home gateways, industrial routers, and drones. 

Supported by mature, carrier-certified software and a comprehensive manufacturing and test solutions ecosystem, the ALT1160 modem is ready to take your IoT devices to the next level.
