More About Fibocom
Fibocom focuses on cellular communication modules that enable device connectivity across multiple radio access technologies, with offerings used by OEMs, device makers, and solution providers building IoT and mobile broadband systems. The company’s product portfolio spans 5G (mobile broadband), LTE (mobile broadband), LTE Cat 1/Cat 4 (IoT connectivity), NB-IoT (LPWAN connectivity), and legacy 3G/2G modules, giving enterprises options for different bandwidth, latency, and power consumption profiles. These modules are designed for integration into terminals, gateways, industrial controllers, Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), automotive telematics units, and various embedded devices.
In enterprise and industrial environments, Fibocom modules are commonly embedded as the cellular communication layer within broader system architectures based on edge computing, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), industrial Process Control System (PCS), or specialized controllers. Modules typically connect to host systems over standard hardware interfaces such as PCI Express (PCIe), USB, UART, Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI), and I²C, with protocol support aligned to 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standards for 5G, LTE, and NB-IoT. Many modules support GNSS (location services) and optional Wi-Fi or Bluetooth coexistence on the same platform, enabling use cases such as fleet tracking, asset monitoring, and mobile point-of-sale.
Fibocom provides module families for 5G (mobile broadband) that address CPE, industrial gateway, and high-throughput applications, where support for NSA/SA 5G architectures, sub-6 GHz bands, and in some cases Millimeter Wave (mmWave), is paired with multi-mode fallback to LTE. For LTE and NB-IoT (IoT connectivity), the company offers modules that emphasize low power operation, extended temperature ranges, and form factors suited to compact or ruggedized devices. These modules commonly expose Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) stacks, FTP/HTTP/HTTPS, Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT), and other application-level protocols through AT command sets to simplify host software integration.
Fibocom also markets embedded modules with application processors (edge computing) that can run operating systems such as Linux or Android, enabling local application logic, protocol translation, and data pre-processing at the device level. This supports architectures where the communication module functions as both modem and compute node, reducing the need for separate controllers in some designs. GNSS-enabled modules (location services) support multi-constellation satellite systems and are used in telematics, logistics, and shared mobility solutions.
From a marketplace taxonomy perspective, Fibocom fits into cellular IoT modules (IoT connectivity), 5G and LTE modules for CPE and gateways (networking), GNSS-enabled telematics modules (location services), and embedded compute communication modules (edge computing). The company complements its hardware with reference designs, development kits, and integration support for OEMs and system integrators who need to certify devices on mobile network operator infrastructures and align with regional regulatory requirements.
