u-blox M2-JODY-W3 Modules

u-blox M2-JODY-W3 Modules are card modules that incorporate the performance of the JODY-W3 Wi-Fi 6 and BLUETOOTH® 5.3 connectivity module with the flexibility and ease of use of an M.2 card. The card supports features of the JODY-W377 module and provides the highest data rates in Wi-Fi using the most advanced Wi-Fi 802.11ax technology. The device operates in concurrent dual Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz), dual-MAC, and 2×2 MIMO on 5GHz. Bluetooth LE/Bluetooth LE 5.3 features such as 2Mbit/s (PHY) data rate, extended advertising, and long-range are supported.

The u-blox M2-JODY-W3 module is based on the NXP Q9098 chip that requires a host processor running a Linux or Android operating system. The M.2 Key E form factor allows access to all authorized JODY-W3 interfaces, such as PCIe, SDIO, high-speed UART, PCM, and I²S.

JODY-W3 modules can be operated in the following modes:

• Wi-Fi 1×1 and 2×2 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax in 2.4GHz and 5GHz
• Concurrent Dual Wi-Fi operation with independent MACs, supporting simultaneous Wi-Fi network operation at two different frequency bands
• Dual-mode Bluetooth 5.3 can be operated fully simultaneously with Wi-Fi
