This is a low-power Raspberry Pi HAT that features multiple communication functionalities: GSM, GPRS, GNSS and Bluetooth! The HAT supports GPS, COMPASS, Glonass, LBS base station positioning and omni-positioning.

It allows your Raspberry Pi to easily make a telephone call, send messages, connect to wireless Internet, track global positioning, transfer data via Bluetooth and more! A 1.8V/3V sim card slot allows you to add a compatible sim card for data connections and calls, which is supported by the onboard 3.5mm audio connector.

The board also features a Real-time Clock (RTC) for keeping accurate time, which uses a CR1220 battery (not included). Six onboard LEDs indicate the module working status, whilst debugging is further aided by the onboard CP2102 USB to UART converter for UART debugging.

The kit comes complete with the HAT, GSM, GPS and Bluetooth antennas alongside a USB cable and fixings. Online development resources are available to get you started too!

Note: Raspberry Pi not included
