The FG132 series is a high-performance 5G RedCap SMD module designed for mid-rate IoT applications. Supporting 3GPP Release 17 RedCap technology, it delivers a maximum downlink speed of 223Mbps and uplink speed of 123Mbps on 5G networks, with LTE fallback offering 195Mbps downlink and 105Mbps uplink.
This series includes sub-models such as FG132-GL for global frequency band support and FG132-NA optimised for North American operators. It is compatible with 5G standalone (SA) networks, supports 4G fallback, and meets the demands of 5G private networks and network slicing.
With a compact 32 × 29 × 2.4mm LGA form factor, FG132 features a PIN layout that aligns with Fibocom’s NL668 series (Cat-4) and MC116 series (Cat-1) modules, ensuring seamless 5G/4G design compatibility. Ideal for industrial gateways, security monitoring, fixed wireless access terminals, vehicle applications, and energy sector deployments.
