The Texas Instruments WL1837MODGIMOCR is a Wi Link 8 industrial dual-band 2x2 MIMO Wi-Fi and Bluetooth dual-mode module in a 100-pin surface-mount package. Per the product title it covers both the 2.4G Hz and 5G Hz bands, with a listed maximum frequency of 5.825G Hz and a 54Mbps data rate. It operates from a 1.62V to 4.8V supply, draws 85mA receiving and 510mA transmitting with a 2.8W maximum power dissipation, and offers -95d Bm sensitivity. The WL1837MODGIMOCR measures 13.3mm x 13.4mm x 2mm, provides a UART interface and 7 GPIO, and is rated -40C to 85C.

A pre-certified combo module lets a design add Wi-Fi and Bluetooth without doing its own RF layout or regulatory certification, which shortens development substantially. 2x2 MIMO with dual-band support is chosen where link reliability and throughput matter in congested RF environments rather than for lowest cost. Typical products are industrial gateways and HMIs, building automation controllers, medical devices, point-of-sale terminals, and grid or metering equipment, and the -40C to 85C industrial rating is usually the deciding factor over a consumer module.
