### Cellular Connectivity
The **Arduino® Portenta Cat. M1/NB IoT GNSS Shield** provide access to various cellular networks via the TX62-W Module (U1). It is possible to connect an external cellular antenna via a micro UFL connector (J7). Both SMS and data transfer functionality are provided. SMS messages can be stored in the SIM card module. The modem is addressable via AT commands. Modem status is provided by the RGB LED (DL1). Input impedance for GNSS antenna is 50Ω.

***Note: The Portenta Cat. M1/NB IoT GNSS Shield requires a physical nano SIM for cellular connectivity. eSIM is not supported at this time.***
### Positioning
Four major GNSS systems are supported by the **Arduino® Portenta Cat. M1/NB IoT GNSS Shield**. NMEA protocol is used for transmission of GNSS information. An active antenna can be connected via the micro UFL connector (J8) and has a bias voltage of 3.0V. Input impedance for GNSS antenna connector is 50Ω. For compatibility with all GNSS system, the antenna should be compatible over the 1559 - 1606 MHz frequency range.
