Sierra Wireless’ AirLink® compatible
Ready-to-Connect routers simplify operations for enterprises with
pre-configured connectivity, device management and support
Sierra Wireless (NASDAQ: SWIR) (TSX: SW), the world’s leading
IoT solutions provider, today announced the availability of its
Ready-to-Connect function for its AirLink routers within the
European markets, making it easy for customers to streamline
business operations and manage and activate connectivity
worldwide.
The Ready-to-Connect compatible AirLink routers offer simplified
operations for commercial and business-critical applications, as
well as optional seamless connectivity. They are pre-configured to
provide Smart Connectivity for AirLink including device management
and support, allowing faster and more successful deployment for
enterprise applications. The new Ready-to-Connect capability
delivers all of the key elements needed – an integrated SIM
pre-configured to Sierra Wireless’ Smart Connectivity offer, a
centralized cloud platform for both device and connectivity
management, and simplified operations—in one integrated IoT
bundle.
“Sierra brought the right set of technologies to the table: a
robust router; a good management platform; and Smart Connectivity
for AirLink which enabled us to access the best available cellular
network regardless of what part of the world the store was located
in,” said Bertrand Degien, Co-Founder and General Manager,
Digitalli. “The combination of both hardware and connectivity made
it easy for Digitalli to provide best-in-class digital signage
solutions in stores where the internet was not available. Having a
single platform to remotely activate and manage both the hardware
and connectivity component makes our implementation significantly
easier. Being able to manage the devices, cellular subscription and
billing from a single platform is a huge efficiency gain, and means
we can avoid the logistical nightmare of having to place multiple
orders with different vendors.”
The new Ready-to-Connect capability is initially available on
the LX40 and LX60 as well as the RV55 Cat4 routers, and provides
the following benefits:
- Full security with a pre-installed electronic SIM reducing the
risk of theft or misuse.
- A centralized cloud platform for both device and connectivity
management.
- One point of contact for hardware and connectivity services
with 24/7 technical support.
- Resilient and secure coverage with redundant routes to multiple
networks to help eliminate local coverage gaps.
- Maximum uptime – 24/7 / 365 global network operations.
- Security and reduced operational costs due to having no manual
SIM insertion, removal, replacement, or programming.
- Fast activation of devices which can happen in less than 10
minutes through AirLink Management Services (ALMS).
“Sierra Wireless’ Compatible Ready-to-Connect series of routers
with their built-in security and Smart Connectivity for AirLink are
fully-integrated both simplifying operations and reducing operating
costs,” said Marc Overton, CSO and SVP of EMEA and APAC, Sierra
Wireless. “Our secure and intelligent range of AirLink
Ready-to-Connect devices allow both big and small businesses to
easily set up wireless communications systems and ensure they
always have the best connection available based on bandwidth,
latency and signal strength from a single, trusted partner.”
The AirLink compatible Ready-to-Connect series of routers are
currently available with full self-service onboarding capabilities
in EMEA from Sierra Wireless’ network of partners, with
availability launching in North America in the near future.
