MediaTek has just launched the MediaTek T300 platform for IoT applications, the latest addition to its 5G RedCap portfolio. The T300 is a 5G RedCap RF system-on-chip (SoC) built with MediaTek’s M60 modem, which offers significant advantages over the current 4G IoT solutions. Let us take a closer look at the features of the new chipset.
MediaTek T300 key features
- The MediaTek T300 has a simplified, reliable antenna design with integrated RF, which claims to extend battery life in 5G devices while reducing development time and costs.
- The platform is paired with MediaTek’s M60 modem, which claims to reduce power consumption by up to 60 percent in existing 4G technologies and 70 percent in existing 5G technologies.
- The MediaTek T300 platform can reach peak download speeds of up to 227Mbps and 122Mbps of upload speeds.
- The platform is 3GPP Release-17 standard-rated (5G connectivity standard set by telecommunication organisations) and offers a lot of energy-efficient enhancements.
- The MediaTek T300 also comes with an 800MHz CPU to ensure the device has a quick response time when activated.
- The platform features MediaTek’s UltraSave 4.0 technology for reduced power consumption, 5G NSA and 5G SA support, and support for LTE & NR-FR1 (20MHz).
- It comes with up to 256 QAM DL/UL for reliability, 1T2R MIMO / 1CC for lower latency, and dual SIM single active (DSSA) and network slicing for various IoT applications.
- What this essentially means is that the MediaTek T300 platform is a chip that is designed to support various wireless networks, including 5G, LTE, and NR-FR1.
- It includes features and optimisations to reduce power consumption, improve reliability and speed, and support different types of IoT applications.
