7Semi MC60 GSM/GPRS/GPS Arduino Shield - Quad-band

The EVE GSM and GPS Shield  allows an Arduino board to connect to the internet, make/receive voice calls, send/receive SMS messages and Location tracking. The shield uses a radio modem MC60 Quectel. MC60 is a quad-band full-featured GSM/GPRS/GNSS module. It is possible to communicate with the board using AT commands. The shield uses Arduinos digital pins 2 and 3 for software serial communication with the MC60.

The compact form factor, great positioning performance, low power consumption and Wide input voltage operating rage make the EVE GSM and GPS Shield the best choice for a wide range of M2M applications, such as automotive, telematics, asset tracker, pet tracker, and so on.

• Fully compatible with Arduino UNO R3, Arduino mega
