Well I would say that this NOTICE describes the legal framework covering 
the source code.

If you are a customer of the Quectel company you have some permissions 
and if you are not you have others.

Per my interpretation the github repo owner must be the tool author or a 
customer of the Quectel company to be able to legally distribute the 
source code.

Using the code is not covered in the notice but would probably be 
derived from common law. (If you include a Quectel part in your product 
your customer must be able to run the Manager Tool even though they are 
not a customer of the Quectel company directly.)


And to answer your question this license does not correspond to anything 
but itself.
