B1/B3/B5/B8/B20/B28 frequency band
The Pico-SIM7020E-NB-IoT is an NB-IoT (NarrowBand-Internet of Things) module designed for Raspberry Pi Pico. It supports multiple NB-IoT frequency band, can be controlled via serial AT commands, and supports communication protocols like HTTP/MQTT/LWM2M/COAP, etc. Due to the advantages of low delay, low power, low cost, and wide coverage, it is the ideal choice for IoT applications such as intelligent instruments, asset tracking, remote monitoring, and so on.
- Standard Raspberry Pi Pico header, supports Raspberry Pi Pico series boards
- UART communication, serial AT commands control, multiple communication protocols support, multiple cloud platform support
- Integrates 3.7V Li-po battery connector and recharge circuit, allows being powered from external rechargeable Li-po battery, or recharging it in turn
- 2x LED indicators, for monitoring the module operating status
- Onboard Nano SIM card slot for NB-IoT specific card
- Comes with development resources and manual (MicroPython examples)

the Pico can be SMD-mounted (left), or attached via female header (right)
connecting with other expansion module and antenna
The pin headers are NOT soldered by default.
Supports communication protocols including: TCP/UDP/HTTP/HTTPS/MQTT/LWM2M/COAP/TLS
Via NB-IoT network, the Pico is able to fetch weather information by HTTP GET,
and send its temperature to server via HTTP POST, then display it on webpage in real time
Weight: 0.006 kg
