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.

Home monitoring is a big part of home automation, but it's often overshadowed. Our attention tends to get hijacked by cool projects that perform physical actions. Whether it's turning the lights on, changing their color, running a robot vacuum cleaner, pulling on the blinds or watering the garden. All these actions are very cool and very visible. Which makes it easy to ignore the background tasks that are the backbone of great home automation. YouTuber and robotics maker RootSaid has been giving this a lot of thought. He's put together an excellent tutorial on creating a self contained, real-time home monitoring module. It's built around the excellent Nano RP2040 Connect, and sends everything to Arduino Cloud. Home Monitoring for You, and Your Family His objective was to create a compact bundle of sensors to keep an eye on various conditions around the home. This battery powered system can then be positioned anywhere, and monitored from Arduino Cloud. His idea is to install the module in an elderly relative's home. That way, he can keep an eye on their environment from anywhere. Of course, this doesn't have to be used purely as a care system. That's a great application for his environment monitoring platform, but it's just as useful for your own home automation system. Too often, sensors (temperature, for example) are physically connected to other automation devices, like Wi-Fi mains switches. But chances are you want to know the temperature over by your sofa. Not down the back of the TV cabinet. RootSaid to the rescue. A Compact Home Automation Sensor Module Let's take a look at the sensors bundled into this compact package. He's got an LDR in there to monitor the light levels. This is perfect for bigger home automation projects, as it can trigger lights all around the house. Even outdoor lighting, if you wanted. There's a Bosch BME280 to keep an eye on the environment. This is becoming a popular device among the home automation crowd.
