Wavecom has launched a new GSM/GPRS modem for machine-to-machine (M2M) applications. The Fastrack M1306B is suited for adding robust and compact wireless capability to existing applications, such as remote control and monitoring, vending, and fleet management. By embedding applications directly onto the modem using Wavecom's open software environment, Open AT, developers can reduce the number of components needed and thereby the cost of the total solution.
Wireless M2M combines telecommunications and information technology to automate processes, to integrate all of a company's assets with its IT system, and to create value-added services. Market researchers expect that 'calls' between machines will outnumber voice calls by 2006, as more and more companies discover the advantages of adding wireless connectivity to remote assets.
Housed in a rugged metallic casing measuring 73 x 54 x 25 mm, weighing 82 grams, the Fastrack M1306B offers two general purpose input/output access points, which can be multiplexed with an I2C bus to connect peripherals. In addition, a new serial auto shut down feature enables a programmable energy conservation mode especially valuable for battery-powered applications. Fully certified, the dual-band 900/1800 MHz Fastrack M1306B offers GPRS Class 10 capability and supports IT protocols such as IP connectivity.
