With 40 years of expertise as a global semiconductor component distributor and value-added services provider–Braemac Americas (rebranded from Symmetry Electronics) understands the complexities of end-device certification. Braemac is deeply familiar with the cost, risk, and time investment involved in developing LTE-enabled innovations. That is why Telit Cinterion’s CMB100 series stands out as a true game-changer in the world of cellular connectivity.
Developer-Friendly and Carrier-Approved
Designed to eliminate complexity, the CMB100 supports LTE Cat 4, Cat 1 bis, Cat M1, and RedCap 5G (launching September 2025), all within a single, future-ready platform. With a wide range of pre-approvals, it mitigates the need for costly redesigns and recertifications. The CMB100 enables scalable LTE and 5G-ready certification across a wide range of applications.
Ideal for developers looking to add cellular connectivity to industrial and commercial devices, the CMB100 comes equipped with a broad range of approvals, including FCC/IC, RED/GCF, PTCRB, Verizon, and AT&T.
