Features:

* Tested with [AirPrime EM7455](https://source.sierrawireless.com/devices/em-series/em7455/) and [Telit LE910Cx](https://techship.com/product/techship-le910c4-wwxd-lte-cat-4-m2/?variant=002) based LTE modules (others may be compatible)
* USB 2.0 connectivity through either:
  * USB-C
  * JST-GH
* Dual physical SIM (only single SIM1 tested so far)
* 30.5mm x 30.5mm M3 mounting holes
* at least 60 Mbps download and 25mbps upload tested

Note: Default SIM detect configuration is SIM1 'open' and SIM2 'closed' (bridged jumper). Depending on the LTE module, the expected SIM detect state may be inverted.

### To do:

* Test SIM slot 2 functionality
* Add USB breakout pads
* Add USB 3.0 support
* SIM detects
* Add diode (maybe LM66200) to separate USB and JST-GH 5V inputs.

## Version History

### V2

Latest version.

### V1

Initial version. Mostly the same as V2 but longer form factor, with a single SIM slot and pads instead of JST-GH connector.
