Introduced at MWC 2026, Quectel FGH200M Wi-Fi HaLow module, based on Morse Micro MM8108 SoC, is an upgraded version of the previous MM6108-based FGH100M module designed for long-range, low-power IoT connectivity. It operates in the sub-1-GHz band (850–950 MHz), with a range of up to 1 km, and is designed for applications such as smart homes, industrial automation, smart agriculture, smart cities, building automation, warehouses, campuses, and large-area IoT networks.
The module operates on 1/2/4/8 MHz channels, with a maximum physical data rate of 43.3 Mbps and a transmit power of 26 dBm, allowing a single access point to theoretically connect up to 8,191 IoT devices. It connects to the host through USB 2.0, SDIO 2.0, or SPI interfaces. The ultra-compact (11.0 × 10.0 × 2.0 mm) LGA package operates in industrial environments with a temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.

The Quectel FGH200M module firmware implements the IEEE 802.11ah Wi-Fi HaLow protocol, while the host system runs the drivers and higher-level networking stack. It supports both AP and STA operating modes, delivers up to ten times the range of traditional 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.
The company also provides matched external antennas such as the YECN009AA and YENT065W1BM. Quectel also mentions the FGH200MAAM2 development board in the datasheet, but at the time of writing, I cannot find any related information on the product.
Wi-Fi HaLow is found in many devices, including cameras, industrial controllers, IP cameras, development boards, USB adapters, and IoT gateways, all targeting long-range, low-power IoT connectivity for industrial, agricultural, and smart infrastructure applications.
Although the FGH200M has been officially announced, its datasheet is still marked as “Preliminary.” Some technical details, such as the receiver sensitivity values for different MCS (Modulation and Coding Scheme) levels, are not finalized yet and are currently listed as “TBD.” More information is available on the product page and press release.
