Option introduces CloudGate, the world's most flexible 3G M2M gateway
LEUVEN, BELGIUM, Oct 10, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
CloudGate delivers a value priced 3G M2M gateway that simplifies
deployment of M2M solutions
Option (EURONEXT: OPTI; OTC: OPNVY), a global leader in wireless
connectivity, security and experience, today announces
CloudGate - a
secure, reliable and affordable 3G M2M gateway that brings new levels
of flexibility and ease of deployment for M2M solutions in the US
market.
At launch, CloudGate delivers secure and reliable LAN to 3G routing
in a robust,
compact, form factor that is compatible with all GSM and
CDMA US mobile networks
in a single product. CloudGate can adapt to
system integrator and customer needs
through its innovative cloud
provisioning service and unique hardware flexibility. CloudGate
enables system integrators and M2M middleware vendors
to
automatically deploy their solutions onto customer's units when
targeting specialized vertical markets.
Patrick Hofkens, Chief Development Officer at Option said: "CloudGate
combines Option's in-depth understanding of 3G and router technology
with server and user
experience knowledge. The product was developed
following feedback received from
system integrators who were looking
for an easy-to-use and value priced 3G gateway. Easy-to-use to our
customers means 3 things. First, that the product works out of the
box on all US mobile networks. Secondly, being able to quickly
and
efficiently deploy their M2M solutions on the gateway without any
further interference from our side. And, thirdly, to have access to
card slots so that they have the flexibility to add functionality via
accessory cards. CloudGate delivers all three."
The CloudGate base product automatically configures itself to connect
to all major US mobile network operators allowing system integrators
and resellers to stock one base unit that will adapt to a specific
end user's site requirements.
The product incorporates two hardware
expansion slots which enables full customization in the channel or
onsite, at or after deployment. CloudGate continuously monitors 3G
connectivity and incorporates a number of innovative error recovery
mechanisms that allow it to ensure the persistence of the 3G
connection.
Option plans to release a number of different expansion cards for
CloudGate and
is also working with third parties to develop specific
hardware and software solutions for specific vertical markets. Option
is licensing the expansion card
format and connector details to
interested parties free of charge.
