Teltonika CALYX EBD070 – The 5G RedCap Pi-HAT That Brings Industrial Cellular to Raspberry Pi
The transition from 4G to 5G is well underway, and IoT devices are finally getting a purpose-built middle ground between LTE and full-fat 5G. That middle ground is 5G RedCap — a streamlined, power-efficient version of 5G designed specifically for industrial IoT, smart devices, and embedded systems. The Teltonika CALYX EBD070 5G RedCap Pi-HAT is […]
What is eRedCap?
The next evolution of 5G for high-volume, low-power IoT (2025–2030) Updated November 2025 Most IoT devices don’t need gigabit 5G.They need something practical: We already have 5G RedCap (Reduced Capability), which strips out the high-end smartphone features of 5G.But eRedCap goes even further. eRedCap = Enhanced Reduced Capability (3GPP Release 18)Designed specifically for mass-market IoT […]
5G RedCap Explained: Practical IoT Connectivity for Industry 4.0 (2025 Guide)
Last updated: November 2025 What is 5G RedCap? The quick version 5G Reduced Capability (RedCap) is a 3GPP Release 17 device class built to give IoT and industrial equipment a sensible slice of 5G: moderate speed, lower power, simpler radios, and smaller modules—without dragging along the full cost and complexity of eMBB-grade 5G. The essentials: […]
5G RedCap Routers and Private Networks
How Teltonika 5G RedCap Routers are delivering the future of IIoT Introduction Industrial connectivity is changing. LTE has done the heavy lifting for years, but the world is moving toward smarter infrastructure, more devices, and tighter uptime requirements. Full 5G exists, but in most real IIoT deployments it is unnecessary. The hardware cost is higher, […]
