These kinds of applications are especially suited for both home and small or medium business network
environment, where land connections are not readily available, and also for field applications, taken
advanced of the industrial-grade built of Bytton LTE and its optional extended temperature range features.
In addition, temporary events (festivals, sporting competitions, trade fairs and exhibitions) may benefit
from the use of a wireless broadband router for data and voice. Even if the temporary event is located in
the heart of the city, getting a wired broadband connection for only two-three days makes no economic
sense.
8.2 M2M Field Applications
Bytton ICR is an industrial grade broadband cellular router, so its applications are not limited to home and
office, as described previously. The extended temperature range version, when fitted with serial
interfaces, is becomes a machine-to-machine device that provides high data transfer rates to remote
equipments located out in the filed, over 3G+ mobile networks.
n addition to the advanced VPN and secured software features of the SOHO version, Bytton LTE provides
industrial grade characteristics such as rugged metal case, extended temperature range for operation and
storage and DIN Rail mounting for installation in an equipment rack.
This rugged, compact-size wireless router is a suitable solution for field-specific applications, such as
telemetry or back-up data transfers, since it includes a wide range of communication interfaces and
protocols, supervised by advanced mechanisms such as backward capability including cross 3G+
networks coverage, WAN, WiFi and USB connections. Using this features, it can “talk” to several
machines or measuring instruments out in the field, not just PC’s but also POS or ATM from filling stations
and shops, telemetry equipments located at remote oil wells or pumping stations, etc. All these remote
machines may be connected, via VIPN tunnels, over the high speed HSPA+ networks, to remote offices
and to the headquarters of a big company with distributed presence, as illustrated below:
