This development kit is for Jalapeno embedded Wi-Fi module based on an IPQ4018 SoC from Qualcomm Atheros, which is extremely powerful quad core 700MHz CPU Cortex A7 CPU with NEON (high-performance media engine), ideal for routers, gateways and access points. It is a surface mountable, dual-sided, Wi- Fi enabled Linux module. It comes with a high-power (23 dBm per chain) dual-band concurrent radio supporting 802.11ac Wave 2 technology (2x2 MiMo) reaching 1.167 Gbps data rate. USB3, USB2, I2C, I2S, UART, GPIO are the interfaces available on the module together with two Gigabit Ethernet ports. SoC has hardware NAT engine and high-end security features like crypto engine, secure boot and others.
