Telit asset gateway software deployed into Cisco IoT gateway for Industrial IoT

London, 8 February 2017 - Telit Communications PLC (AIM: TCM, "Telit", the "Group"), a global enabler of the Internet of Things (IoT), announced today that its deviceWISE Asset Gateway Software has been validated on the Cisco® ISR8x9 and Cisco 4000 families of routers. The software is now available as an integrated Cloud-ready Industrial IoT (IIOT) solution.

These highly-secure and ruggedized Industry 4.0 appliances provide edge intelligence for industrial asset management, condition-based monitoring, predictive maintenance and other mission-critical IoT applications across industrial markets around the world.

Telit and Cisco also engaged in a multi-faceted go-to-market collaboration that expands their market reach and readiness for their respective products and services. The deviceWISE Asset Gateway software is a smart agent with an extensive industrial protocol library based on decades of development and experience in the industrial automation space.

Vikas Butaney, General Manager, Cisco IoT Connectivity:

"Telit edge software on Cisco IoT Gateways enables customers and partners to access machine data with a broad range connectors for manufacturing and industrial deployments.

"Cisco has a rich portfolio of industry specific IoT gateways with security, scale, compliance, with 4G LTE, Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity options and management to enable customer success for operational deployments. Now, customers have the flexibility to choose the most optimal IoT gateways, with Telit edge software, management and SI partners to deploy Connected Machine use-cases with confidence"

Charlie McNiff, VP Business Development, Telit IoT Platforms:

"Adding Cisco to our expanding ecosystem of Telit IoT partners is a notable advantage for the industry and our common customers. It will enable us to expand the market reach for both companies in the high-growth industrial IoT market."

About deviceWISE

The deviceWISE Asset Gateway Software and cloud-based Application Enablement Platform (AEP) from Telit turns Cisco industrial routers into an intelligent Industry 4.0 onramp to the Industrial Internet of Things. deviceWISE provides a logic engine with an extensive library of machine and industrial protocols and drivers that provide best-in-class edge intelligence, which is often referred to as "Fog Computing".

The large library of Industry 4.0 device drivers and protocols interface to PLCs and automation devices from manufacturers such as Siemens, Mitsubishi and Rockwell and virtually all other automation equipment commonly found in complex machines in buildings, manufacturing, transportation, utilities, alternative energy, mining, or oil & gas. The deviceWISE drag-n-drop edge-logic engine communicates with external devices or sensors via LAN, USB or serial interface and can monitor digital and analog I/Os. This configuration tool can run triggers, do conditional monitoring, make decisions and take actions.

The Cloud- based AEP also provides a robust set of horizontal application-creation and device management tools to simplify remote operations and updates for any vertical industry application. Fundamental to the Cisco IoE architecture, Cisco industrial routers with the deviceWISE software installed become trusted FOG access points to Cisco's Analytics platform. Data scientists and consultants can then enable new service opportunities by quickly creating tailored applications for remote monitoring and control, production diagnostics, predictive maintenance, process improvements, supply chain logistics, real-time decision making and improved levels of quality.
