Telit Cinterion is setting a new benchmark in IoT positioning technology. The company has announced the expansion of its GNSS portfolio with new dual-band modules. These solutions are designed to offer both compactness and precise, uninterrupted tracking capabilities for a wide range of IoT devices.
Telit Cinterion Launches Advanced Dual-Band GNSS Modules
Telit Cinterion has introduced the SE873K5-D and SE869eK5-DRK dual-band positioning modules. Both modules leverage the latest technology from Airoha’s AG3335 chipset series. Because of this partnership, Telit Cinterion continues its legacy of innovation in GNSS solutions. The new modules address the rising need for accurate and resilient positioning, especially in constrained or critical IoT applications.
New GNSS Solutions Deliver Ultraprecise IoT Positioning
The SE873K5-D is designed for devices that require both ultra-compact size and low power consumption. It supports dual-band L1 + L5 navigation, ensuring submeter-level accuracy and resistance to interference. Meanwhile, the SE869eK5-DRK targets high-end applications with RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) and dead reckoning features. The embedded inertial measurement unit (IMU) allows for seamless and accurate positioning even when satellite signals are weakened or absent, such as in tunnels or urban canyons.
Scalable GNSS Technology for Power-Constrained Applications
A key advantage is the scalability of these modules. Both devices are built for easy integration with Telit Cinterion’s existing hardware, which helps device makers upgrade without a complete redesign. The SE873K5-D’s small 7 x 7 mm footprint and ultra-low power variants serve battery-operated solutions like wearables and trackers. Additionally, the SE869eK5-DRK’s extended pinout, backward compatibility, and advanced correction support ensure that OEMs can future-proof their IoT products and expand features as necessary.
In summary, Telit Cinterion’s new GNSS modules mark a significant leap in precise, scalable IoT positioning. With advanced correction technologies, form factor flexibility, and backward compatibility, these solutions empower manufacturers to deliver high-performance, reliable location tracking for diverse uses. As mass production rolls out in 2026, the IoT ecosystem can expect more robust and continuous global positioning experiences.
