Scalable and flexible mobile communication platform on "22 x 23 mm":
The mobile communication form factor of the future!

If you are looking for a mobile communication solution for your application today:
What is particularly important to you?

Mobile communication technology, design and price?

Long service life, future-proof technology, flexibility and scalability will surely play an important role as well. You need to be able to respond quickly to changing market requirements.

From 2G to 4G - bank on the smallest, scalable module range on the market! 

The CF3 form factor of Sierra Wireless allows you to:

  1. Simplify your product structure
  2. Increase flexibility
  3. and thus minimise development costs and times

Sierra Wireless offers mobile communication modules from 2G to 4G with the CF3 form factor.
Technology can be changed easily and quickly due to the form factor and pin compatibility. You can therefore adjust to marked requirements flexibly and implement the requirements of your customers at any time.

Decide now and be "optimally equipped" for the future"
The CF3 form factor provides a solution that will continue to grow with the development of mobile communication technology.
New modules with the latest technologies are already being prepared and will further increase the flexibility and future sustainability of your application.
LTE Cat 1, LTE Cat 0  as well as LTE Cat M are only the beginning…

Choose easily between "plugging" and "soldering" for your assembly
In addition to the well-known soldering assembly method for the LGA housing, you can also use a pin- and footprint-compatible socket to mount the module on the circuit board.
This socket facilitates easy exchange of the modules in your application, e.g. for test and development. The use of a socket can also simplify your production planning, as you can use the right module for the application.

HL range, WP range or even both? Decide for yourself!
Sierra Wireless offers you two module ranges for different applications with the CF3 form factor:

  • HL range:  Smart mobile communication module with integrated TCP/IP stack.
  • WP range: Programmable and intelligent mobile, Linux-based communication modules.

The WP range is also downwards compatible with regard to the HL range, which maximises the potential use of the modules. 

CF3 - You do not need more than one form factor!
