Powerful and versatile HSDPA wireless CPU

28 November 2007 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Wavecom has launched the Fastrack Extreme, an HSDPA (or 3.5G) version of its plug-and-play wireless CPU.

Compatible with existing Open AT applications, the newest addition to the Fastrack family has the same form-factor as the current Fastrack Supreme and is based on a powerful ARM9 core for applications processing and the Icera Livanto soft baseband modem. With Icera's Adaptive Wireless enhanced Type 3 advanced receiver and receive diversity technology, it achieves data rates up to 7,2 Mbps and is said to deliver higher data-rates in real network conditions than any other M2M module. Fastrack Extreme is equipped with a tri-band radio for global coverage.

Fastrack Extreme benefits from Wavecom's Intelligent Device Service, or IDS, a secure service platform for remotely managing devices over the air. IDS is used for upgrading firmware and application software, configuring devices and implementing remote diagnostics. This service platform can be integrated to customers' existing back-end servers.
