Swedish M2M Service Provider Plans U.S. Expansion

乔治·勒布朗，市场发展主管和其中一名新员工，会见了自动化世界to discuss Telenor Connexion’s experience and plans.

Telenor’s mission is to help companies to design and operate embedded mobile communications in industrial, medical and other machines, vehicles and devices. Telenor Connexion offers what in the telecom industry is called a service-management platform (SMP) for business-to-business wireless connectivity. SMPs provide essential connectivity management, intelligent rate-plan management and customer self-service capabilities that enable manufacturers of intelligent machines and devices to offer secure and reliable mobile communications to their customers.

Existing customers include Omron (health monitoring devices), Hitachi (wireless communications for excavators), and Volvo and Daimler (telematics). Industrial condition monitoring and remote tank monitoring are logical extensions, LeBron said.

与像AT＆T和Verizon这样的无线提供商不同，他们迎合消费者客户，Lebron表示，Telenor专注于商业客户，“帮助他们确保他们的客户体验高质量的移动通信。你知道你的iPhone有多少次呼叫。您不希望与关键商业系统发生这种情况。“提供”网络监控，触发警报和一系列其他网络管理服务。

Telenor Connexion is wholly owned by Telenor Group, the sixth largest mobile provider in the world. The company was established in 2008 when the M2M business within Telenor Sweden, which included both physical infrastructure and M2M services, was spun off. In April of this year, Swedish telecom giant Ericsson bought the infrastructure portion, allowing Telenor Connexion to focus solely on services.
