Sierra Wireless brings 5G to the Internet of
Things with a network certified, secure 5G module that delivers the
speed and capacity required for next-gen IoT applications
Sierra Wireless (NASDAQ: SWIR) (TSX: SW), a world leading IoT
solutions provider, today announced that its EM9190 5G
mmWave/Sub-6/LTE New Radio (NR) and EM9191 5G Sub-6/LTE NR embedded
modules are the first to be fully certified to operate on Deutsche
Telekom’s 5G public network and campus (private) networks in
Europe. This certification will enable customers in Europe to
leverage the higher data speeds, lower latency, and capacity of 5G
with one of the world's leading integrated telecommunications
companies.
“This is a significant milestone for 5G, and for the wider
industry,” says Jens Olejak, Head of New Access Technologies,
Deutsche Telekom IoT. “5G is set to profoundly impact the mobile
industry and its customers and we’re proud to be partnering with
Sierra Wireless to deliver organizations the high-speed, reliable
connectivity they need to digitally transform their
operations.”
With this certification, EM9190 and EM9191 customers can
commercially deploy networking devices, computing devices and other
connected products on Deutsche Telekom’s high speed and low latency
5G network for industrial applications, live video streaming, video
security, high-definition cloud-based video gaming, extended
reality (XR), robotics, and other next generation IoT
applications.
“This certification further demonstrates that when it comes to
bringing 5G to the IoT, Sierra Wireless is leading the way,” says
Jim Ryan, SVP Partnerships, Marketing & IoT Solutions, Sierra
Wireless. “When you combine Deutsche Telekom’s industry-leading 5G
network with the EM9190 and EM9191 module’s industry-leading
performance, robust security and industrial-grade design, along
with Sierra Wireless’ decades of IoT experience and global
presence, the answer to the question of which IoT solutions
provider you should partner with as you map out your 5G future
becomes clear – it’s Sierra Wireless.”
Transforming IoT with 5G
5G’s higher data speeds, lower latency, and higher device
capacity are set to transform the IoT market, enabling OEMs,
advanced electronic, and other industrial companies to support
enhanced mobile broadband, ultra-reliable, low-latency
communication and massive machine-type communication use cases that
simply were not possible without 5G.
5G’s ability to support these new use cases is why in a recent
report, McKinsey and Company state, “As new use cases gain
traction, it is expected that B2B 5G IoT unit sales will soar… in
the B2B sphere, we expect total revenue for 5G IoT modules to
increase from about USD 180 million in 2022 to almost USD 10
billion by 2030.”
Modules Designed for Easy Integration, Private Networks,
Global Connectivity
Based on the industry-standard M.2 form factor, the EM9190 and
EM9191 modules are an industrial-grade module that enable OEMs,
system integrators and other companies to easily integrate secure
5G connectivity into their products.
The EM9190 and EM9191 also include an embedded SIM (eSIM) based
on GSMA’s embedded SIM specification, eUICC. This eSIM makes it
easier for customers to switch networks anytime using
carrier-specific profiles, for added IoT product deployment
simplicity and flexibility.
Part of Sierra Wireless’ EM Series, the modules have been
designed to connect to 5G networks around the world, and have
already been certified by 5G mobile network operators in North
America and other global regions.
The EM9190 and EM9191 modules are currently available globally
from Sierra Wireless’ global network of partners.
