M2M wireless gateway ideal as an aggregator or bridge for different wireless networks
Based on the company’s Bluetooth platform, this gateway offers four class 1 BT modules, Ethernet and WLAN communication as a standard package. Built on an embedded Linux operating system, the device supports application development and customization using Lua scripting language and optional support for Python, and Java (JVM). The gateway delivers versatile functionality to add applications, offers flexible configuration via web or console, and provides multiple connectivity options using USB, RS232 and RJ45 ports.
“The APG W400 features a multi-radio modular architecture and builds on Laird Technologies’ family of Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum radios, including the BISM2, or an optional LT2510; and integrates Bluetooth, Ethernet and 802.11b/g in a compact form factor,” said Sachin Andhare, Laird Technologies Product Manager, Telematics & Wireless M2M. “The gateway is an innovative platform that can bridge two different networks, aggregate data from up to 28 nodes, enable data processing using custom application scripts and log to a remote server; thereby simplifying the deployment of M2M applications.”
The APG is designed to act as a network node and can bridge most common types of wireless, network, and serial data protocols for the purpose of remote data acquisition and control. It is an ideal product solution for the M2M market segment, particularly Bluetooth Point of Sale (POS), scanners, and handheld devices for retail and healthcare applications.
