SIMCom A7677S Arduino Shield

In the context of Vietnam phasing out 2G services in September 2024, over 15 million 2G subscribers will be affected. The transition to 4G/5G technology is becoming urgent to achieve the goal of widespread adoption of advanced mobile networks. In response to this situation, the demand for 4G-supported modules is rising sharply.

To meet this new trend, the RnD/FAE team from EPI Vietnam Technologies, with extensive hands-on experience and continuous research, introduces the Shield Arduino A7677S – a version that supports only 4G. The product is optimized for direct connection with Arduino Uno R3, supporting VoLTE and SMS on the 4G platform, making it a perfect replacement for 2G modules.
