Partnership Provides Quality Design, Easy Installation and Quick Time to Market Cinterion Wireless Modules, the global leader in cellular M2M communication modules, and
GTT, a leading M2M hardware design and RF mechanical integrator today announced collaboration on the development of innovative wireless module PCB (printed circuit board) integration and M2M solutions. This global partnership will provide Cinterion customers with market leading passive subsystem integration (PSI) solutions for M2M vertical markets including smart meter reading, telematics and vehicle & asset tracking. Cinterion enabled RF mechanical integration solutions are quickly delivered by GTT from concept through a structured process of architecture design, block modelling, rapid prototyping, EMI review and IP-rating design.
GTT is a preferred global solution integrator specializing in innovative wireless module PCB integration and M2M solutions as well as a long time Cinterion partner. The expanded partnership serves their common customer base and leverages the strengths of two industry leaders adding a level of expertise and efficiency that benefits many stages of the integration value chain.
Customers of these market leading partners benefit from a “Design for Quality” promise, which includes a structured design process with a complete review of all mechanical integration and environmental issues. The “Easy Installation” value proposition means an innovative installation design reduces the ‘total cost of ownership’ for end users. GTT and Cinterion further guarantee a “Quick Time to Market”, from concept to delivery and can reduce the time to market significantly thorough expert knowledge of design issues, mechanical integration, RF convergence and installation environment.
“In today’s challenging economic climate, it has become even more critical to reduce not only the total cost of ownership but also the time to market,” said Kieron Malloy, Technical Director from GTT. “GTT has a proven track record of delivering the highest quality M2M passive subsystem integration solutions and significantly reducing ‘time to market’ through design innovation for customers in a variety of M2M vertical markets. Now with a strategic global cooperation of wireless modules market leader Cinterion we can jointly provide customers with M2M hardware solutions that cannot be matched in terms of quality, reliability and a short development timeline.”
“With this collaboration, Cinterion is happy to further expand its partner network in order to simplify the complete value chain, especially with regards to easy integration,” said Lars Thyroff, Chief Marketing Officer, Cinterion Wireless Modules. “A big network of competence partners helps our customers pave the way into the M2M market and significantly speeds the time it takes to start realizing the benefits of smart M2M technology.”
Cinterion’s Modules can be integrated for a variety of M2M solutions including automatic meter reading (AMR), security, remote maintenance and control, vending, point of sales (POS) and more. Often manufacturers from vertical markets do not have specific experience with the process and procedures related to cellular products. They, in particular, will benefit from the new migration and the innovative wireless module PCB integration developed by Cinterion and GTT.
