cellular gateways provide primary and backup connectivity via high-speed 3G

connections to remote sites and devices. They are ideal for remote device

connectivity within energy, transportation, financial/ATM, retail and other M2M

applications. Ericsson’s HSPA technology also enables a range of new, high-speed

M2M applications, such as video surveillance, where high-bandwidth and higher

upload speeds are required.

“We are excited to work with Ericsson, a global leader in 3G mobile broadband

network technology,” said Larry Kraft, senior vice president of global sales and

marketing, Digi International. “The collaboration allows for rapid global adoption

of Digi gateways with strategic carriers where Ericsson relationships already exist.

Customers can now realize high-speed network connectivity with the global

leaders in M2M wireless connectivity and 3G HSPA mobile technology.”

“Everything that benefits from a network connection will eventually have one,”

said Mats Norin, vice president, head of Mobile Broadband Modules at Ericsson.

“There is a strong trend toward connecting devices in M2M applications, and our

embedded modules enable HSPA in any device. Digi is a leading company in M2M

wireless connectivity, and this collaboration opens up new opportunities for us in
