Embedded Cellular Pi Hat

Embedded Cellular Pi Hats give Raspberry Pi and other SBC-based projects reliable 4G, 5G, and 5G RedCap connectivity without the complexity of traditional industrial routers. These compact modules are engineered for embedded applications where space is tight, power budgets matter, and the device needs to behave like a fully-featured cellular gateway.

Unlike consumer-grade USB dongles, these Pi Hats use Teltonika-grade industrial modems with proper RF performance, global certifications, and long-term support. They integrate cleanly with Python, Linux, serial interfaces, and containerised apps, making them ideal for edge deployments, prototyping, and field-ready IoT products.

Available Options

4G Pi Hat (CAT4 – EBD021)
A robust LTE Cat 4 module offering dependable connectivity for edge computing, telemetry, retail, and sensor networks. Perfect for high-uptime data logging, remote management, and small industrial projects that don’t need 5G throughput.

5G Pi Hat (EBD050)
A full 5G SA/NSA module delivering top-tier performance for AI-at-the-edge workloads, computer-vision projects, high-bandwidth gateways, or any Pi-based system that needs serious throughput with low latency.

5G RedCap Pi Hat (EBD070)
Built for IoT rather than raw speed. RedCap bridges the gap between LTE Cat 4 and full 5G, providing excellent power efficiency, lower latency, faster uplink than LTE, and longer device lifespan. Ideal for CCTV, ANPR, SCADA, environmental sensors, kiosks, smart cabinets, and anything battery-sensitive.
