Sierra Wireless Announces Mass Production of Industry’s First Ready-to-Connect Cellular Modules

Ready-to-Connect Modules, with Integrated SIM, IoT Platform and Security, Simplify IoT Development and Operations and Reduce Time to Deployment up to One Year. Sierra Wireless today announced its award-winning Ready-to-Connect solutions are in mass production. Ready-to-Connect delivers all of the key elements needed for an IoT application —cellular module, integrated SIM that’s pre-connected to global mobile networks and IoT platform for device and subscription management and simplified operations—in one integrated bundle. Research by analyst firm Frost & Sullivan found that many IoT deployments can take more than 18 months to move from concept to commercial launch. With Ready-to-Connect, companies can innovate in a third of the time, while also simplifying operations and reducing product and logistic costs by up to $500,000/year*. Ready-to-Connect eliminates the need to manage different vendors and platforms, as well as the complex pairing of multiple components that can lead to security vulnerabilities.
