Fibocom is expanding high-precision GNSS modules with its MGB Series, showcased at India Mobile Congress 2026. The lineup includes three positioning solutions designed for connected devices with varying accuracy, energy, and cost requirements. Its MGB390-AR model uses real-time kinematic (RTK) technology to achieve centimeter-level positioning, making it suitable for applications requiring precise location measurements. Meanwhile, the MGB390-A supports India's NavIC satellite system, improving compatibility with regional navigation infrastructure. The MGB180 and MGB280 provide lower-power alternatives for everyday tracking applications.
With all three models already in mass production, Fibocom can serve manufacturers developing devices for fleet management, asset monitoring, and vehicle connectivity. Offering multiple performance levels allows customers to select suitable components without paying for unnecessary capabilities. Regional satellite support also strengthens Fibocom's opportunities in India's expanding connected-device market while supporting broader commercial adoption.
