Cassia Networks, the leader in enterprise Bluetooth IoT solutions, today announced a strategic distribution partnership with World Wide Technology (WWT), a technology solution provider with more than $9 billion in annual revenue. WWT provides innovative technology and supply chain solutions to large public and private organizations around the globe. This partnership enables device manufacturers and solution providers - from healthcare to education to manufacturing and more - to access Cassia Networks' enterprise solution providing users with a cost-effective and easy way to build and deploy IoT systems.

"Cassia Networks provides next generation Bluetooth IoT solutions that are transforming how enterprises experience IoT," said Felix Zhao, Founder and CEO of Cassia Networks. "WWT, a leading technology solution provider with global reach, opens new channels and uses innovative, holistic approaches to get customers the business results they want. We are excited to partner with WWT to promote the growth of IoT in all spaces."

As the creator of the world's first Bluetooth router, which won Best of CES (News - Alert) in 2016, Cassia Networks is the leader in solving the key challenges of wireless connectivity for both consumer and enterprise IoT markets. The enterprise suite, which earned an Innovation Award honoree title at CES this year, enables businesses to easily build, manage and deploy large scale, comprehensive IoT ecosystems while solving for the barriers of cost and interoperability.

Cassia Neworks' enterprise product suite includes three different Bluetooth router models made for both indoor and outdoor environments that connect Bluetooth enabled devices and sensors, a Software Development Kit (SDK) that enables communication between Bluetooth devices made by different manufacturers, and the Access Controller (AC) that allows the entire IoT ecosystem to be accessed and managed from a single dashboard. Together, Cassia Networks' hardware and software platform enables businesses to build seamless IoT networks that are easy to deploy and manage. With reliability and security, Cassia can connect and perform locationing on thousands of smart devices, collect and analyze data in real time, and gives partners the power to efficiently operate and deliver customer benefits.



"Our primary mission is to build robust channels that provide our clients with the solutions and products that work best for them and their businesses," said Nicole Tate, Senior Business Development Manager - IoT of World Wide Technology (News - Alert). "With the addition of Cassia Networks' enterprise product suite to our roster of offerings, we can deliver high quality, tailored IoT solutions to a variety of industries."

An award winning, hospital-based telehealth provider in the U.S. is already leveraging the Cassia partnership with WWT. The provider will use Cassia Networks' enterprise products to remotely and securely monitor vital medical data and conditions of their at-home patients in real time. The Cassia Bluetooth router will connect a patient's Bluetooth medical devices, automatically gathering and sending the data collected to the provider and serving as a bridge between the patients and their doctors.


Working together within the healthcare space and beyond, Cassia Networks and WWT will reach a greater audience of businesses with an enterprise IoT solution that will automate everyday processes and can be easily applied to a wide variety of industries. By automating time-consuming activities, such as data collection and locationing, the Cassia Networks enterprise suite enables businesses to run more efficiently and focus on providing better consumer experiences.

Cassia Networks will be exhibiting its enterprise IoT solutions at the 2017 HIMSS Annual Conference & Exhibition at Booth 475, February 19-23 in Orlando, Florida.
