Board mountabel GSM modems

Can anyone tell me about the available GSM modems in the market which are AT command compatible.

I have found this and I'm looking for more before I make a move.

The main thing is I should be able to communicate with it via a microcontroller and therefore I need it to be board mountable(through hole is preferred)

Any help is appreciated.

  • What do you mean by "AT command compatible"? Note that most GSM modules (it's called modules when intended to mount into your equipment) are using AT commands. But the actual commands supported will differ, since there are no organization standardizing the commands.

    In the end, you will have to ignore modules where you can't get a full documentation of the supported command set. The lack of documentation is the most common failure reason for people who are trying to use normal GSM phones.
