SIM7000E Arduino shield questions

Hello !

 

I have a few questions about the SIM7000E arduino shield that I am about to purchase.

 

Firstly, the website says that input voltage is 7-12V. As far as I know, Arduino outputs 5V. Do I need a separate power source and where should I connect it?

 

Secondly, I'm going to install this module on top of the Nucleo-L152RE board. Will I be able to send AT commands via USART? What other problems may I encounter when connecting to the Nucleo board? The previous SIM808 module installed without problems.

 

Sincerely,

Maksim
