Answering the demand for remote learning
solutions amid Covid-19 pandemic
Sequans Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS), leading provider of
chips and modules for broadband, critical, and massive IoT, and
AMIT Wireless, maker of wireless M2M and IoT solutions worldwide,
have collaborated on two new connectivity devices to facilitate
distance learning. Both are based on Sequans Cassiopeia CB610L
module, optimized for CBRS OnGo networks in the USA. One is a USB
dongle (IDG120-C6U01) that connects laptops or other USB equipment
to CBRS OnGo networks; and the other is a cellular WAN (wide area
network) extender (IDG500-C6012) that connects existing Ethernet
based equipment to CBRS OnGo networks.
“The global pandemic has created high demand for distance
learning using CBRS private networks and solutions,” said Bertrand
Debray, VP and head of Sequans broadband IoT business unit. “AMIT
has tremendous expertise in networking and product design and has
built two powerful connectivity solutions that have all of the
necessary capabilities needed to facilitate high speed distance
learning with robust data throughput. We are pleased to work with
AMIT to make these important solutions available at this time.”
“We selected Sequans’ Cassiopeia CB610L module to provide the
connectivity for our USB dongle and WAN extender because Sequans is
an expert in 3.5 GHz connectivity, and we believe the module is the
most robust and feature-rich CBRS connectivity solution available
today,” said Dennis Wu, vice president, sales and business
development, AMIT Wireless. “Partnering with Sequans we are able to
offer cutting edge distance learning solutions that connect to CBRS
networks in an instant, with high speed, robust and reliable
connectivity.”
