Chemring Technology Solutions Demonstrates SmartSwitch's M2M Capability on Multi-Tech Platform
ROMSEY, England, February 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Hall 7, Stand 7C14, UKTI Pavilion, Mobile World Congress, Barcelona
At this year's Mobile World Congress, Chemring Technology Solutions
[http://www.chemringts.com ] will be demonstrating how SmartSwitch
[http://www.policyonthedevice.com ](TM) and Multi-Tech [http://www.multitech.com/en_US ]'s
M2M platform can enable network operators to maximise monetisation opportunities for next
generation apps, without impacting real-time service reliability.
The advanced policy engine in SmartSwitch(TM) supports M2M applications by
intelligently matching the priority of the data to a mobile network's preferred times
(such as a pre-defined off-peak schedule). This will maximise M2M system development
opportunities, such as telehealth or industrial applications, without congesting mobile
networks.
Ben Toner, Incubation manager at Chemring Technology Solutions, said: "To offer both
the mobile network and the user a real benefit, SmartSwitch(TM) can connect the needs of
the M2M application with the needs of the mobile network. It allows Multi-Tech's M2M
mobile devices to separate data into real-time and non-urgent classifications so that they
use the wireless service at a time when the data cost is lower for the end-user and
network less congested, enabling the operators to maximise service reliability."
Rod Landers, CEO of Multi-Tech, said: "I'm really excited to see this technology
getting deployed and we are very flattered that Chemring chose Multi-Tech's products to
demonstrate SmartSwitch(TM) at Mobile World Congress. We see this as an important tool for
M2M applications and network operators to more efficiently manage their traffic and costs
of service which will further accelerate growth in the Internet of Things."
SmartSwitch(TM) is the world's first true policy-on-the-device app that provides
enhanced subscriber engagement and connection management capability. It is optimised to
provide network operators with intelligent selective offload and traffic shaping, much of
which can be provided as a simple application delivered via an app store. Its unique
policy framework allows operators to choose between in-built traffic management solutions
for seamless and aggregated use of network technologies or to make use of native
functionality offered within the chipsets.
By using context aware conditions, an understanding of user preferences and
interaction with the billing platform, network and data management are brought to life. As
SmartSwitch(TM) is application aware, this also gives operators the ability to reduce
congestion in known problem coverage areas and ensure that traffic from value-added
applications is not lost.
