Smart modules bring Android 16 to IoT designs

Quectel’s 4G SH602FA and 5G SE505FE smart modules feature built-in Android 16 to accelerate industrial and commercial IoT development. The modules enable developers to build connected products such as handheld terminals and inspection devices with rich user interfaces and enhanced multimedia performance.

The 4G SH602FA is powered by a MediaTek MT8786 chipset with a 64-bit octa-core processor comprising two Arm Cortex-A75 cores and six Cortex-A55 cores. An Arm Mali-G52 MC2 GPU supports graphics-intensive embedded applications without requiring an external host processor. The smart module integrates LTE Cat 4, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.1, and GNSS, along with camera and touch-panel interfaces.
Offering Android 16-powered 5G connectivity, the SE505FE leverages a MediaTek MT8863T chipset with a 64-bit octa-core processor comprising two Arm Cortex-A76 cores and six Cortex-A55 cores, along with an Arm Mali-G57 GPU. The module supports 5G sub-6-GHz and LTE Cat 4, together with Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, and GNSS.
A timeline for module availability was not provided at the time of this announcement.
