Horsebridge offers ‘industry’s first’ enterprise class cellular router with Qualcomm Gobi

The industry's first enterprise class cellular router with Qualcomm Gobi technology is now available from UK based, solutions specialist, Horsebridge Network Systems.

Gobi technology supports either High Speed Packet Access (HSPA) or Evolution-Data Optimised (EV-DO) networks from the same cellular radio, which means the Digi TransPort WR44 can connect to virtually any cellular network in the world.

Horsebridge says customers can now benefit from reduced costs and improved efficiency by utilising one solution for use in multiple regions. The WR44 also minimises risk by being able to develop with the system as required.

The Digi TransPort WR44 is an all-in-one router with an integrated Wi-Fi access point. The multi-function unit provides high-speed connectivity to remote devices by combining a 3G cellular router, security, advanced routing, an Ethernet switch, global positioning system (GPS), telemetry and Wi-Fi access point within one device.

"Qualcomm's Gobi technology is unique because it provides reliable, transparent 3G connectivity to both EV-DO and HSPA networks," says Horsebridge Managing Director, Geoff Smith "This will allow customers to access global networks and critical information from nearly anywhere in the world."

The combination of enterprise class features and flexible wireless functionality makes the router ideal for connecting remote devices in vertical applications such as transportation, remote offices and retail point-of-sale, says Horsebridge.
