Arduino Pro 4G GNSS Module Global
The effortless way to revolutionize your connectivity experience, with the fourth generation of broadband cellular network technology.
Overview
The cutting-edge Arduino Pro 4G Module allows you to expand your connectivity capabilities to unlock the full potential of your projects – without changing your Portenta board.
Powered by a robust Cat.4 modem from Quectel, it ensures fast data throughput and high bandwidths for quick data download and upload, in even the most remote locations. Secure data transfer and long-range coverage make it ideal for challenging environments.
Developed in the widely adopted mini PCIe form-factor, it easily integrates into a wide variety of projects.
In addition to reliable 4G connectivity across the world, the Arduino Pro 4G Module guarantees compatibility with 2G and 3G networks.
Key benefits include:
- Add 4G connectivity and positioning to the Portenta family
- Guarantee reliable and quick data download and upload even in remote locations
- Enable long range coverage, both indoors and outdoors
- Change connectivity capabilities without changing the board
- Reduce infrastructure investments with respect to other traditional solutions
- Install your products in multiple countries leveraging the global network coverage
- Send SMS and set-up real-time notifications in case of alarms
- Take advantage of the widely adopted Mini PCIe form factor
Applications
The Arduino Pro 4G Module allows you to connect to your devices via Arduino Cloud, making error analysis, firmware updates, and remote maintenance easier and faster than ever. Have a project on a bigger scale? The Arduino Pro 4G Module can help you monitor an entire building’s safety conditions: regularly check on deformation, temperature, moisture levels, and other critical parameters without having to travel to the location itself – and take timely action when needed.

OPC Unified Architecture – OPC UA in short – is a cross-platform, open-source machine-to-machine communication protocol for industrial automation. It was developed by the Open Platform Communications (OPC) Foundation and is defined in detail in the IEC 62541 standard. With the release of the Arduino_OPC_UA library we enable users to convert any product from our Arduino Opta range into an OPC UA-enabled device. Step-by-step guide to setting up OPC UA on Arduino Opta It’s as simple as uploading a single sketch onto your Opta and connecting it to an Ethernet network. Once uploaded, the OPC UA firmware exposes the Arduino Opta’s analog and digital inputs, the user button and LED (only Arduino Opta WiFi), as well as its relay outputs as properties that can be read from or written to using OPC UA. OPC UA communication is performed using OPC UA binary encoding via TCP sockets. Arduino_OPC_UA is a port of the Fraunhofer open62541 library implementing IEC 62541 in highly portable C99 for both Windows and Linux targets. One serious challenge during the porting of open62541 was to decide on sensible tradeoffs concerning RAM consumption, as using OPC UAs full namespace zero (NS0) requires up to 8 MB of RAM while the STM32H747 powering the Arduino Opta has a total of 1 MB of SRAM to offer – some of which already allocated by the the Arduino framework for the Arduino Opta. Expand functionality with Arduino Opta Modules and OPC UA integration Additionally, Arduino_OPC_UA supports the automatic discovery, configuration and exposure as OPC UA objects of the recently released Arduino Opta expansion modules. Currently three different expansion modules exist: Arduino Opta Analog Expansion (A0602), Arduino Opta Digital Expansion with electro-mechanical relay outputs (D1608E), and with solid-state relay outputs (DS1608S). During system start-up, the Arduino Opta’s expansion bus is queried for connected expansion modules and automatically configures them and
