Car class module with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth LE audio capabilities

     U-blox announced the launch of the u-blox JODY-W4 automotive class module, which integrates cutting-edge Wi-Fi 6E technology and Bluetooth LE audio capabilities into all sub-models of the module. The off-the-shelf solution is compact and compact in size (13.8x19.8x2.5mm) with a total of three antenna ports and integrated with Infineon's chipset (89570/89570B). In addition, the module is compatible with pin implementations of other products in the u-blox JODY family, easily addressing the challenges of multiple interfaces, high cost, and high complexity design.

     In addition, the module is compatible with pin implementations of other products in the u-blox JODY family, easily addressing the challenges of multiple interfaces, high cost, and high complexity design. The more innovative design expands the range of frequencies that can be supported, not only in the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, but also in the higher 6GHz bands. The newly expanded 6 GHz band opens up the possibility of using additional high bandwidth channels for the module, enabling it to support more communication needs today and in the future.

     The U-blox JODY-W4 module supports the automotive industry's favorite Bluetooth LE audio technology. With its new Bluetooth Low Power 5.3 version, the U-Blox Jody-W4 module delivers an improved audio experience, greater distance communication, and improved compatibility with new accessories. To meet the market demand for operating temperatures above 85°C, the JODY-W4 is available in sub-models that can operate properly at 105°C, thus providing the vehicle with greater positioning flexibility.

     The JODY-W4 module is an innovative product that fits well with u-blox's vision for communication technology development, and can provide strong support for the Internet of vehicles and vehicle infotainment systems industry. In addition, the JODY-W4 will help facilitate automated upgrades at the plant, for example, by completing communications during vehicle production.

     The JODY-W4 module is used in a wide range of scenarios, including networked vehicle terminals (TCUs) that collect data from a variety of sources, firmware wireless update (FOTA) for electronic control units (ECUs), "ignition" mode (keyless access via Bluetooth LE), and vehicle infotainment systems (Wi-Fi access to hotspots, DVRS, and cameras). And processing audio data via Bluetooth).
