Sierra Wireless also expands mangOH ecosystem,
adding manufacturing and design partner Jabil for rapid
productization of low-power Industrial IoT devices
Sierra Wireless (NASDAQ:SWIR) (TSX:SW), the leading provider of
fully integrated device-to-cloud solutions for the Internet of
Things (IoT), today released alpha samples of its next-generation
mangOH® open source hardware platform, inviting the IoT developer
community to influence the final product. mangOH Yellow, a “super
sensor” for connected IoT, allows developers to measure and monitor
virtually anything, with all of the interoperable building blocks
needed to rapidly develop and productize low-power Industrial IoT
applications.
The award-winning mangOH platform helps developers address many
of the challenges that limit their ability to quickly and
cost-effectively bring connected cellular LPWA (Cat-M1/LTE-M and
NB-IoT) and 2G/3G/4G products to market. mangOH’s open source
model, industrial-grade components and extensive ecosystem enable
businesses to reduce time to market for Industrial IoT applications
by up to one year and cut development costs in half.
“Whether you’re developing IoT applications for a startup or a
Fortune 500 company, mangOH gives you a head start to a minimum
viable product, right out of the box,” said Ashish Syal, Chief
Engineer and mangOH Founder, Sierra Wireless. “Building on the
success of mangOH Red and Green, we’re excited to release mangOH
Yellow and give the IoT developer community the opportunity to
influence the final product.”
Smaller and lighter, mangOH Yellow is targeted at IoT
applications where compactness and low-power consumption are
essential. The size and mechanical design will allow developers to
build standalone and extremely compact proof-of-concepts/prototypes
or to incorporate it into existing systems for instant IoT
connectivity. Existing mangOH Red and Green and applications
developed using the Legato™ open source Linux platform can be
easily ported to mangOH Yellow. In addition to cellular
connectivity, mangOH Yellow features built-in Bluetooth Mesh and
BLE 5, as well as Wi-Fi and NFC. It also includes 14 advanced
sensors and actuators on board in an ultra-low-power architecture
for long-lasting, mobile, battery-powered applications. mangOH
Yellow provides ultimate flexibility and functionality with an IoT
connector slot to leverage the more than 15 IoT cards built by
members of the collaborative mangOH ecosystem, which are available
today.
Sierra Wireless also announced that Jabil, a provider of design,
manufacturing, supply chain and product management services, has
joined the extensive mangOH ecosystem. Jabil is the lead
manufacturing partner for mangOH Red and the next-generation mangOH
Yellow.
“mangOH is creating a disruptive opportunity in the IoT space
for companies to innovate, and Jabil is pleased to join the
ecosystem to help mangOH users cost-effectively take their
prototypes to market,” said Rafael Renno, Senior Business Unit
Director, Jabil. “We’re not only manufacturing mangOH, we’re also
working with several large customers to develop new industrial use
cases based on mangOH Red that will revolutionize industries.”
Availability
mangOH Green and mangOH Red platforms are commercially available
through preferred distributors. Visit http://mangoh.io/buy to buy.
mangOH Yellow will be commercially available in May 2019. Attendees
of the Sierra Wireless Innovation Summit on June 5, 2018, in Paris,
France, will be the first to have access to early samples.

About mangOH
Sierra Wireless founded the mangOH open source hardware
community in 2015 to make it easy for developers to prototype with
any wired, wireless, or sensor technology based on their unique IoT
use case. mangOH platforms deliver 90% of the solution prototype
out-of-the-box, enabling software developers to easily build
reliable IoT solutions that hardware designers can customize to
rapidly create Industrial IoT devices. It provides:
- Open source and business friendly
designs so anyone can copy, modify and build commercial
products;
- Flexible designs to adapt to any IoT
use case based on wired, wireless, and sensor technologies;
- Interoperable, industrial-grade
components so that prototypes can be easily turned into a
commercial products; and
- Support for other open source
initiatives like the Legato Linux platform to remove the complexity
of hardware integration.
