Description

We would like to explore different scenarios aiming at providing internet access on the SolidSense. This access would be achieved through cellular networks.
Here are a couple of scenarios we came up with and some questions that arose:

1) Enabling the on-board LTE chip and access it like a network interface. In this case we would have to buy SIM cards from a cellular operator and handle devices with a fleet management software like Mender.

2) Adding a cellular module to the board. For example Telit sells cellular modules including a SIM and also offers a fleet management UI.

  • Would it be possible to handle such a cellular module with Redpesk OS ?
  • Would it be possible to replace the on-board LTE chip by another one or could SolidRun deliver boards with an empty cellular chip connector ?
