Trinity Telecomms has announced that the AirLink range of intelligent 3G M2M routers and mobile gateways from Sierra Wireless is now available to the South Africa market.
The AirLink product line is a set of intelligent rugged and industrial 3G devices for mobile data and M2M applications. They are widely used for mobile broadband applications in sectors such as police and emergency services, critical infrastructure monitoring and security surveillance deployments, as well as in remote monitoring applications like energy management and automation.
All AirLink devices are powered by ALEOS, an embedded intelligence platform that has evolved over 15 years of deployments in real world solutions, including numerous mission-critical applications. ALEOS ensures a consistent, reliable connection between remotely deployed or mobile assets and the enterprise, leveraging mobile wireless networks. Coupled with the ACEware suite of remote management, configuration and control tools and applications, the AirLink product line provides long-term reliability and low total cost of ownership.
The AirLink product line consists of three core product families:
* M2M gateways – This includes the AirLink Raven line of rugged terminals, featuring GPRS/HSUPA devices, suitable for automation and control in the M2M environment.
* In-vehicle gateways and routers – These include the AirLink PinPoint and MP lines of rugged mobile devices, specifically designed for mobile data, public safety and field services, featuring HSUPA communications and GPS functionality. Each device is also designed to meet stringent requirements for extreme temperatures, moisture and high-shock environments.
* Commercial grade routers – These include the AirLink Helix line, designed for 3G WAN connectivity with optional Wi-Fi, a solution for wireless WAN applications such as field connectivity, business continuity and surveillance.
The new 3G AirLink devices are all able to connect to the Trinity Smart M2M platform, to enable clients to benefit from remote device monitoring, control and maintenance, including software downloads over the air.
