US-based intelligent wireless solutions supplier 5429 Novatel Wireless has introduced an advanced an advanced mi-fi powered machine to machine (M2M) device that incorporates the industry leading mi-fi technology platform with customisations for multiple M2M vertical markets.

The SA 2100 is designed for high bandwidth M2M applications across multiple vertical markets that up until now have required complex and fragmented application deployment.

Designed for high bandwidth M2M applications, the SA 2100 makes it easier to connect Ethernet-based or wi-fi enabled devices to the high speed internet via 4G LTE access.

The SA 2100 is also a full-featured telematics solution for application service providers, systems integrators and enterprise customers to optimise mobile resources, including fleet management and asset tracking.

The device also acts as a hotspot in a car for access to wi-fi enabled devices such as laptops and tablets.

"We are proud to extend the mi-fi technology platform to address multiple markets at once; in-vehicle connected cars, commercial telematics such as fleet management, and fixed telemetry," said Dr Slim Souissi, CTO of Novatel Wireless. "The SA 2100 positions us at the center of projected growth markets with a powerful integrated solution, combining our patented technology with our expertise in customising, design, integration, and deployment of M2M devices," he continued.

    Bluetooth and Wi-Fi offer new options for travel time measurements
    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c

    Buses services benefit from seamless Wi-Fi data transfer
    Ted Bowser explains how the almost total Wi-Fi coverage at Ride-On’s new bus garage is providing big benefits for the operator and passengers alike. The ability to download and upload data to and from the various systems on board buses has become central to mass transit operators’ business model. So when Ride-On, the public transportation system in Maryland’s Montgomery County, was moving one of its three depots into a bigger and purpose-built facility, connectivity was a key consideration.

    Wi-Fi Alliance and AT4 to test unlicensed LTE coexistence with wi-fi
    AT4 wireless is to provide testing services to assess the fair coexistence of wi-fi and LTE in unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U) devices in accordance with the Wi-Fi Alliance Coexistence Test Plan. The testing assesses whether commercially available LTE-U devices coexist fairly with wi-fi in the same environment. The development and deployment of LTE-U devices, which utilise 4G LTE radio communications technology in the unlicensed spectrum, introduces the possibility of interference with wi-fi equipment operat
