“ We ’ re excited to be at the forefront of introducing our technology not only to our customer base in oil and gas , but also into other attractive growth sectors ”
– James Freeman , CTO and President , New Ventures which has especial relevance in remote monitoring situations . Before it added support for LPWAN technology to its IIoT gateway fleet , Zedi could only connect devices through wired connections , limiting the number of devices connected and their range .
Zedi can now create an LPWAN hotspot , up to 10km in radius , allowing any number of LPWANcapable devices within the hotspot to communicate with the Gateway . And since most devices are not yet LPWAN-capable , Zedi created a small new low-cost , low power hardware product called a Zedi Mote to connect to existing devices , and make them LPWAN-capable .
The speed with which Zedi integrated this technology , combined with its use to pivot Zedi ’ s solution set into other industry verticals , won it the 2017 Outstanding Product Achievement Award from the Canadian Advanced Technology Association ( CATA ).
As Freeman puts it : “ LPWA technology in particular will be a key enabler of the IIoT , and we ’ re excited to be at the forefront of introducing our technology not only to our customer base in oil and gas , but also into other attractive growth sectors .”
