Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
Laird's 60 Series SOM and WB50NBT bring all of Laird's industry competence and capabilities into one solution. The SOM provides superior enterprise-class Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. This solution is equipped with a Cortex A5 applications processor, wireless and wired connectivity, enterprise-grade security, LCD support for the 60 Series SOM, and comprehensive Linux board support package (BSP). The 60 SOM is the ideal system-on-module, and the WB50NBT, the ideal wireless bridge for devices that require superior connectivity.
