The M2-JODY-W3 card module combines the maximum 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 all features of the JODY-W377 module and delivers the highest data rates in Wi-Fi using the most advanced Wi-Fi 802.11ax technology. It can operate in concurrent dual Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), dual-MAC, and in 2x2 MIMO on 5 GHz. It supports Bluetooth LE/Bluetooth LE 5.3 features such as a data rate of 2 Mbit/s (PHY), extended advertising, and long range.
The M2-JODY-W3 card module is based on the NXP 88W9098 chip. It requires a host processor running a Linux or Android operating system. The M.2 Key E form factor gives access to all supported JODY-W3 interfaces, such as PCIe, SDIO, high speed UART, PCM, and I2S.
