Oslo, Norway – December 12, 2018 – Nordic Semiconductor today announces that the
first nRF9160 System-in-Package (SiP) member of its nRF91® Series of cellular
IoT modules will be available to all customers via its global distribution
network within the next 24 hours. This includes Digi-Key Electronics, Mouser
Electronics, and Premier Farnell (amongst others).

The nRF9160 has received GCF certification—the trusted mobile communications
industry ‘quality mark’ for compliance to the 3GPP LTE specification and global
cellular network interoperability—along with separately required FCC and CE
regulatory certifications. This means the nRF9160 SiP is approved for deployment
in cellular networks and cellular IoT product applications around the world.

The general availability of the nRF9160 SiP will make cellular IoT wireless
technology accessible to any application due to the unique ease with which the
module can be designed-in. Prime examples include asset monitoring and tracking,
utility metering, industrial (machinery) connectivity and predictive
maintenance, smart city and infrastructure, agrotech (smart agriculture), and
medical.

Nordic will host an event on December 18th, 2018 to further provide information
about the product. For information, see attached invitation.
