The AirPrime HL series of embedded wireless modules for machine-to-machine (M2M) applications has been expanded to include satellite navigation support.
Touted by their maker, Sierra Wireless, as the smallest embedded wireless modules (22 x 23 mm) to be completely interchangeable across 2G, 3G and 4G technologies, they provide device manufacturers with the ability to serve different regions, across multiple network technologies, with one device design.
The devices can be soldered down for efficient high-volume production, or placed into a snap-in socket at any time in the production cycle. This allows 2G modules to be swapped for 3G or 4G versions in the future, even in completed and field-deployed devices.
In addition to its flexible hardware design, the AirPrime HL series is designed to be future proof. With AirVantage Management Service – Sierra’s off-the-shelf, cloud based M2M platform – customers can easily upgrade device firmware over-the-air for thousands or even millions of deployed devices at a time, ensuring they can stay in service for many years while lowering maintenance time and operating costs.
The modules are ideal for M2M communications in point-of-sale, smart grid, and fleet management or tracking, with global navigation satellite system (GNSS) support for GPS and GLONASS constellations built in.
