Teltonika EBD070 5G Redcap Calyx Raspberry Pi HAT+


The Teltonika CALYX EBD070 is an industrial 5G RedCap cellular Pi HAT designed to add professional-grade mobile connectivity to Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 5 platforms.

Built around 5G RedCap (Reduced Capability), EBD070 delivers lower latency and better efficiency than LTE, without the cost or power overhead of full 5G. It is purpose-built for IoT gateways, edge computing, telemetry, automation and industrial control applications where reliability matters more than headline speeds.

Key features:

  • 5G RedCap (SA) with LTE Cat 4 fallback
  • Designed for Raspberry Pi 4 & Raspberry Pi 5
  • Dual SMA connectors for external cellular antennas
  • Nano SIM slot (4FF)
  • Industrial temperature range for field deployments

EBD070 – Industrial 5G Redcap cellular connectivity for Raspberry Pi

The CALYX EBD070 brings Teltonika’s industrial cellular expertise into the Raspberry Pi ecosystem. Instead of relying on consumer USB dongles or unstable adapters, this Pi HAT delivers a clean, integrated cellular solution designed for continuous operation in real-world environments.

It mounts directly onto the Raspberry Pi GPIO header and connects internally via USB, creating a compact and professional embedded gateway suitable for enclosure-based installations.


What is 5G RedCap and why it matters

5G RedCap (Reduced Capability) is part of the 5G standard specifically designed for IoT, industrial devices and edge systems.

Compared to LTE:

  • Lower latency
  • Improved network efficiency
  • Better long-term roadmap support

Compared to full 5G:

  • Lower power consumption
  • Reduced hardware complexity
  • More predictable cost profile
  • This makes RedCap ideal for gateways, controllers, sensors and remote systems that need reliable connectivity, not gigabit speeds.

Designed for embedded and edge applications

The EBD070 is engineered for permanent installation rather than desktop use. It supports external antennas via SMA connectors, allowing correct antenna placement away from the Pi enclosure when required.

GPIO-level control pins allow software-based power management, modem reset and wake control, making it suitable for automated recovery and watchdog implementations in unattended deployments.


Typical applications

  • Industrial IoT gateways
  • Edge computing and data aggregation
  • SCADA and PLC backhaul
  • Environmental monitoring systems
  • Smart infrastructure controllers
  • Transport and asset telemetry
  • Remote Raspberry Pi access over cellular
  • Temporary or mobile installations where fixed broadband is unavailable

This is not a hobby accessory. It is designed for engineers building deployable systems.
