BAKERSFIELD, Calif., October 8, 2009

ProSoft Technology® is pleased to announce the release of the RadioLinx® Intelligent Cellular solutions, designed to provide wide area and even global Wireless connectivity for industrial devices. Intelligent Cellular Gateways utilize the existing cellular infrastructure to connect devices across geographically diverse locations. The RadioLinx Intelligent Cellular Gateways can also be used to connect devices through the Internet to one or more locations.

Intelligent Cellular solutions combine robust industrial cellular technology, industrial protocol templates, and ALEOSTM persistent connection management. ALEOS enables real-time device status and health including network connectivity, throughput and signal strength while the ACEmanagerTM utility enables local or over-the-air device configuration and diagnostics. Integration is made easy with downloadable configuration templates that support various industrial protocols like DF1 and Modbus, and can be customized to support others.

The Intelligent Cellular solutions offer a compact form factor, low power consumption, DIN-rail mount and a rugged design which supports industrial operating temperatures and Class I Div 2 hazardous location certification.

Intelligent Cellular solutions are suited for industrial automation applications such as remote equipment monitoring, management and control, OEM equipment monitoring, M2M applications, and non-time-critical control for municipal water/wastewater, power, and oil/gas SCADA. Versions are available for the following cellular networks:

Serial Modem for Global GPRS/GSM (RLXIC-SG)

Use the RLXIC-SG Serial Modem for applications requiring serial connectivity on cellular carriers that use GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) to provide service, including AT&T in the USA and Rogers in Canada. GSM is also the predominant cellular technology in most other parts of the world. For customers outside of North America, ProSoft Technology works with global Mobile Virtual Network Operations (MVNO), who allow us to provide cellular service for customers worldwide.

Ethernet Gateway for HSUPA (3G GSM) Networks (RLXIC-EH)

Use the RLXIC-EH Ethernet Gateway for applications requiring Ethernet connectivity on cellular carriers that use GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) to provide service, including AT&T in the USA and Rogers in Canada. GSM is also the predominant cellular technology in most other parts of the world. For customers outside of North America, ProSoft Technology works with global Mobile Virtual Network Operations (MVNO), who allow us to provide cellular service for customers worldwide.

Serial Modem for the Verizon Wireless CDMA Network (RLXIC-SV)

Use the RLXIC-SV Serial Modem for applications requiring serial connectivity on cellular carriers that use CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) to provide service using the Verizon network in the USA.

All ProSoft Technology products come with a three year warranty and unlimited technical support.
