    7 The GW16126/GW16132 is a miniPCIe form-factor card that features both a BLE 5.0 radio and a Cat-M1 modem designed for the IoT market.

    9 The GW16126 uses the SARA-R410-52B (North America Coverage) module and the GW16132 uses the SARA-R410-02B (Multi-Region) module. Both of the modules are PTCRB certified by U-blox. Gateworks will be moving all customers to the GW16132 module which covers both North America along with additional regions to provide the most flexibility and carrier coverage.

'''Note''' this SIM will not automatically work with the GW16126 because the GW16126 is not end device certified with Verizon. Customers will need to work with their particular cellular carrier to get test SIMs that will work properly with the modem. Certification should also be discussed at the same time.
