Overview

"B593RW2A VER.B RF" is on the back of the board.

This device has a Mini PCIe slot. It is likely USB only.

"MD1EM92012UM" and "VER.A RF" is on the Mini PCIe (LTE) wireless module.

The module is using RTR8601 and PM8028.. (w/ Qualcomm MDM9200)

The device appears to support the following cellular bands and modes..

  • 2G: EDGE/GPRS/GSM - 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
  • 3G: HSUPA/HSDPA/UMTS/DC-HSPA+ - 900/2100 MHz
  • 4G: LTE FDD - 800/900/1800/2100/2600 MHz

.. but, this is probably at least partially wrong.
