FreeWave Technologies’ WavePoint stands out with versatile, high-speed platform

FreeWave Technologies, Inc., a leader in industrial, secure Machine to Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) wireless networking solutions, today announced Frost & Sullivan (http://www.frost.com) has recognized the company for its WavePoint platform with the 2014 North American Unified Industrial Wireless Platform New Product Innovation Leadership Award.

“The oil and gas industry is moving toward more remote locations and thereby demanding additional connectivity solutions for wider control and operational visibility,” explained Aida Paola Conti, Frost & Sullivan research analyst. “FreeWave reconstructed the wireless market boundaries in the oil and gas industry with WavePoint by amalgamating multiple industrial-grade radios in a single unit. This benefits the industry in terms of improved total cost of ownership for a real-time enterprise. This also emphasizes FreeWave’s closeness to customers and its ability to come up with a successful product that provides the flexibility to use wireless as a strategic business tool.”

FreeWave’s WavePoint is a versatile, high-speed wireless networking platform that securely communicates industrial data over long distances to enable M2M, broadband and SCADA applications (https://www.freewave.com/products/allproducts/WavePoint.aspx). It was designed to meet the specific challenges of connecting difficult-to-reach field locations by providing powerful wireless IP routing capabilities combined with the choice of frequencies and network deployment capabilities to suit any application scenario.

“We are honored to receive this highly esteemed award based on the independent research and analysis from the Frost & Sullivan team,” said Ashish Sharma, CMO of FreeWave Technologies. “This acknowledgement is a reflection of all the great work our team, partners and customers have achieved together.
