Cavli Wireless debuts P16QS LTE module and Cortex AI at electronica 2026
Cavli Wireless is heading to electronica 2026 in Munich (November 10–13, Hall C2, Booth 628) with two new products: the P16QS LTE Cat 1bis System-on-Module and Cortex AI, an autonomous firmware engineering assistant. The company also plans to show 5G router prototypes and a live demo of its Cavli Hubble device management platform.
P16QS: LTE Cat 1bis in a 40 x 30 mm package
The P16QS is a compact SoM aimed at payment terminals, vehicle telematics, asset tracking, connected soundboxes, and instrument clusters. It runs a 32-bit RISC-V processor at 325 MHz and supports RTOS-based application development.
Key specs:
- LTE Cat 1bis with 10 Mbps down / 5 Mbps up
- Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth Low Energy 5.4
- Integrated secure element plus NFC, smart card, and magnetic-stripe reader interfaces for payment designs
- Optional multi-constellation GNSS and optional integrated eSIM
- 40.0 x 30.0 x 2.7 mm LGA package with peripheral and display interfaces
At the show, Cavli will demonstrate the P16QS in a point-of-sale concept that combines payment peripherals, local processing, secure connectivity, and wireless communications in a single module-based design.
Cortex AI: AI-assisted firmware development
Cortex AI is Cavli’s autonomous firmware engineering assistant. It integrates code generation, compilation, flashing, and device boot-up into a single workflow, with the goal of cutting development cycles from months to weeks, depending on project complexity. The company says it reduces repetitive manual tasks and speeds up firmware validation.
5G modules: CQM220 RedCap and CQM211 NR
Cavli will also show router prototypes powered by two 5G modules.
The CQM220 is built on 3GPP Release 17 with the Qualcomm SDX35 chipset (Arm Cortex-A7 at up to 1.9 GHz). It targets mid-tier IoT with 5G RedCap at 220 Mbps down / 120 Mbps up, LTE Cat 4 fallback at 150 Mbps down, OpenWrt support, dual-band GNSS, PCIe Gen2, and USB 2.0. Available in LGA and M.2 form factors.
The CQM211 is built on 3GPP Release 16 with the Qualcomm SDX61 chipset, including a Hexagon DSP. It targets bandwidth-heavy applications with 5G NR at up to 2.5 Gbps down in NSA mode and 1.5 Gbps in SA mode, LTE Cat 16 fallback, carrier aggregation, Yocto Linux, PCIe Gen3, and USB 3.1/2.0. Also available in LGA and M.2.
Cavli Hubble: remote fleet management
The Hubble platform demo will cover Hubble Lens for remote AT-command access and diagnostics, FOTA/DFOTA for remote firmware updates, and Hubble Cloud Connect for device-to-cloud data routing. The platform handles global cellular connectivity, eSIM lifecycle management, device monitoring, and remote diagnostics from a single cloud environment.
“Building an IoT product should not automatically imply months lost in integrating hardware, connectivity, firmware tools and cloud operations together.” — John Mathew, Founder and CEO, Cavli Wireless
Cavli will also have printed copies of the inaugural Cavli360 IoT Magazine at the booth, covering 5G, AI-driven IoT, 6G trends, and regional market analysis.
