Sierra Wireless (NASDAQ: SWIR) (TSX: SW) today announced that
Compass Intelligence, a global market research and consulting firm,
has awarded the company with the “Best Gateway for Branch Offices,
Fast Food and Casual Dining of the Year” in the M2M/IoT category.
The award was presented to Sierra Wireless at the 2016
International CES trade show on January 7 in Las Vegas.
Compass Intelligence’s Best Gateway for Branch Offices was
awarded to Sierra Wireless for its 4G LTE AirLink® ES450 Enterprise
Cellular Gateway, developed to provide wireless broadband
connectivity for retailers and distributed networks.
“We’re honored to win this prestigious industry award,” said
Jason Krause, Senior Vice President, Enterprise Solutions at Sierra
Wireless. “For over twenty years, Sierra Wireless has been
providing best-in-class mission-critical cellular communication
solutions to the world’s largest organizations. This award is
evidence of our commitment to innovation and execution in the
Enterprise Networking market.”
The 4G LTE AirLink® ES450 Enterprise Cellular Gateway provides
both primary and failover point-of-sale (POS) connectivity. It is
an ideal solution for retailers as unlike landline formats such as
T1, cable and DSL for internet access, it is not affected by
disruption of physical infrastructure. Downtime due to internal
technical failures can also be promptly fixed from remote locations
using the AirLink® ES450’s out-of-band management. Premier
extreme-value North American retailer, 99 Cents Only Stores,
recently deployed AirLink® ES450s in 20 per cent of its stores for
dual-cellular connectivity, and has since exceeded its business
continuity standards of 99.95 per cent, in addition to enabling
added functionality such as real-time data monitoring and remote
control over its front-end sales and back-end operations
activities.
The Compass Intelligence Awards are an annual program that
recognizes companies who offer the best products, services and
solutions to advance the Consumer and Enterprise Mobility, IoT/M2M
and Green Technology markets. The awards are selected by a panel of
industry journalists, editors and analysts, and are based on such
criteria as uniqueness, features and impact on the industry.
“Sierra Wireless provides superior technology in its gateways
and management services, which allow customers across various
industries to enable innovative IoT solutions that are propelling
its customers over their competition,” said Keith Robinson, Sr.
Strategist & Consultant, Head of M2M/IoT, at Compass
Intelligence.
