LARA-R6801-00B

LARA-R6801-00B is a compact IoT cellular module in the LARA family, designed for low-power M2M/IoT devices. It provides wireless connectivity over LTE-M (Cat M1) and NB-IoT networks, enabling long-range coverage with low data rates and extended battery life. The module typically includes an integrated TCP/IP stack and AT command interface for easy control, plus multiple hardware interfaces.
Key points:
- Radio: LTE-M and NB-IoT support, with broad band versatility (exact bands depend on variant).
- Interfaces: UART and USB host/device, GPIOs, and typically I2C/SPI options.
- Power: supports low-power modes (PSM, eDRX) for long idle times.
- GNSS: optional onboard positioning (GPS/GLONASS/Beidou as available).
- Security: hardware security features such as secure boot and encryption.
- Applications: asset tracking, remote monitoring, smart metering, industrial automation.
For precise band coverage, pinout, AT command set, and design guidelines, consult the official datasheet and hardware design guide from the manufacturer. If you want, I can summarize those specifics.

The LARA-R6801-00B is supplied in an LGA (Land Grid Array) surface-mount package.

I don’t have a confident match for LARA-R6801-00B in my internal data. May I look it up online and return the manufacturer and a one-sentence description?

Typical application areas for LARA-R6801-00B (LTE module) include IoT/M2M systems such as:
- Fleet and asset tracking/telematics
- Remote monitoring and control (industrial, building, energy)

There isn’t a publicly published cross-reference for LARA-R6801-00B. To find an equivalent, compare NB-IoT/LTE‑M bands, footprint, interfaces (UART/USB/SPI), supply voltage, and firmware. For an official substitute, contact Laird Connectivity or an authorized distributor. If needed, consider other NB-IoT/LTE‑M modules from major vendors (Quectel, Sierra Wireless, Telit) that match your bands and interfaces.
