Altair Semiconductor, a Sony Group Company based in the Israeli town of Hod Hasharon, is “a leading provider of Cellular IoT chipsets, playing a pivotal role in realizing the vision of the Internet of Things (IoT),” according to its website.
Now, it has announced that its laboratory has been officially authorized by the Global Certification Forum (GCF).
Internet of Things is the interconnection via the internet of computer devices embedded in everyday objects, enabling them to send and receive data.
As the IoT expands to include all types of connected things, “Altair’s ultra-low-power and ultra-small chipset solutions are turning Cellular IoT into reality,” the company said in a statement.
“Our vision has changed what is possible for device makers that rely on us to connect millions of devices,” the Israeli company boasts.
Altair chipsets can be found in wearables, vehicle telematics, smart utility meters, personal and logistics trackers, home appliances, consumer electronics, and many other IoT devices, it says.
Altair says it ships “millions of units to customers around the world connecting to the world’s tier-1 cellular networks,” adding that “our chipsets keep them connected to today’s LTE networks and ready for 5G IoT.”
“By combining conformance and interoperability tests undertaken in laboratories on multiple live networks, GCF’s authorization of the Altair’s laboratory will make us a standout player in the global marketplace,” says Asraf Fouks, Director of System Validation at Altair.
Already, Altair’s chipsets have been commercially deployed on the world’s most advanced LTE networks, including AT&T, China Mobile, KDDI, Softbank, Verizon, and Vodafone, says the company.
