The Raspberry Pi 4G/LTE Cellular Modem Kit provides all the components one needs for establishing an internet connection on their Raspberry Pi.

System Requirements

To getting started with the Raspberry Pi 4G/LTE Cellular Modem Kit, first check the following requirements.

Hardware Requirements
Raspberry Pi 3, 3B+, 4 or 5

Step 1: Assembly

1. Attach the mini PCIe module to the HAT

2. Attach the antenna to the mini PCIe module

Make sure the right antenna is connected to the right port. Attach LTE full band PCB antenna/LTE connector of the LTE-GNSS dual antenna to the main Antenna interface/diversity antenna interface & GPS Antenna portion goes to the GNSS antenna interface.

Sixfab Raspberry Pi Cellular IoT Kit (LTE-M) — Telit ME910C1-WW Antenna Interface

3. Attach header and insert the SIM card

4. Attach it to the Raspberry Pi through the 40 pin header

5. Connect the micro USB cable from the Base HAT to the Raspberry Pi

Step 2: Sixfab SIM Activation

This step is applicable only when the Sixfab SIM card that comes with the kit is used. If a third-party CAT M1 SIM card is used, this step should be skipped.

To register and activate the Sixfab SIM card, the steps described in the tutorial linked here.

Step 3: Power the System

Power the Raspberry Pi, the whole system including the HAT and the Telit module will get the required power from the Raspberry Pi.
