UC-8100 is world's first industrial-grade wireless computer to earn both ATT and Verizon 4G LTE certification
BREA, CA, – Moxa, Inc., a global provider of communications infrastructure solutions for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), announced today that its UC-8100 embedded computing platform has been tested by ATT and met all requirements for compatibility to operate on the carrier's nationwide wireless network. Certification means that users of the Moxa UC-8100 platform can now leverage the coverage, speed and reliability of ATT's expansive 4G LTE network in bandwidth-intensive Machine-to-Machine (M2M) industrial applications to reduce operational costs and enable new business opportunities.
In May of this year the UC-8100 was certified to operate on the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE network. With today's announcement the UC-8100 is now the world's first industrial-grade wireless computer to earn both ATT and Verizon 4G LTE certification.
"ATT was an early leader in supporting IIoT and accelerating its growth," said Daniel Liu, Business Development Manager for Moxa. "Like AT&T, Moxa is dedicated to the emergence of the real-time, adaptive enterprise where virtually any device that benefits from two-way communications can be connected. Our UC-8100 computer is just the latest in a long line of Moxa IIoT devices that extend the reach of industry, helping in capturing information and controlling resources."
Designed to improve remote communications and connectivity, the Moxa UC-8100 Series wireless computer makes it simple for systems providers to offer a complete monitoring service for remote field devices used in large-scale, big data WAN applications, such as Smart Grid telecom, residential solar power systems, and city-wide IP video surveillance programs. In solar applications, for example, the UC-8100 acts as a compact, highly flexible, vendor-agnostic data logger that connects to inverters, string combiners, smart meters, and other devices, then transmits that data over Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or cellular.
The UC-8100 Series computer has a slim form factor (10.1 x 2.7 x 12.8 cm) designed for DIN-rail mounting. Despite its small size, it can provide system designers with unbeatable flexibility for managing heavy-load data processing and communications. Two LAN ports and up to two serial ports connect the UC-8100 to devices, and built-in SD and mini SD sockets allow for easy storage expansion, delivering plenty of space at a highly economical price. Since the UC-8100 is exceptionally programmable and customizable, it is able to handle nearly any data collection and communication task from nearly any vendor's device.
For a limited time, Moxa is offering a specially-priced starter kit that includes the UC-8100 unit, a wireless module (Wi-Fi or LTE), pre-installed tools, and instructions for enabling VPN and routing functions. Interested system integrators can obtain a starter kit direct through Moxa's online store or through select Moxa distributors.
