MaxLinear, Inc., a world leader in connectivity technologies, today announced that MWave Consulting, Ltd. (a UK-based RF & Microwave design facility) has selected the MaxLinear G.hn technology for use in its industrial IoT (IIoT) devices. G.hn technology is well suited for a full range of industrial IoT networks and connects any device through Ethernet PHY, MII, SGMII or RGMII interfaces.
According to a 2023 MarketsandMarkets™ research report, the industrial communications market is predicted to grow to US$26.8B by 2027 as companies increasingly turn to technology to deliver significant business improvements. With its products, MWave addresses the expanding demand for machine-to-machine (M2M) connectivity that requires resilience and real-time synchronization – applications for smart buildings, autonomous robots, and factory automation processes such as smart lighting control, smart elevators, smart traffic lights, charging stations, airport navigation systems and fire alarms.
“With G.hn's capability to handle real-time two-way traffic and high bandwidth, this technology is naturally well-suited as a backhaul for a complete range of smart buildings and automated factory devices,” said Richard Welland, Director, International Sales & Marketing of MWave. “Partnering with MaxLinear provides a modular G.hn solution that we can easily embed into our products that provide superior IIoT solutions, allowing the transport of multi-gigabit-per-second IP data reliably over any existing wire.”
“MaxLinear is committed to bringing our customers a competitive advantage through engineering excellence. Our solutions, such as the high-speed G.hn networking solution, make our customers more competitive by enabling shorter design cycles and significant design flexibility,” said Will Torgerson, Vice President of the Broadband Group at MaxLinear.
“Most new products must be connected to the Internet or a network to boost efficiency and productivity,” said ShengYang Electronics General Manager Robert Xu. “Providing products to meet this global market demand for IIoT offers new growth market opportunities for our organization. We are pleased to have MaxLinear as our partner for G.hn technology.”

Validere, a measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) SaaS company, today announced the launch of its new mobile application and smart alerting features, which will connect field operators, executives, and their environmental teams responsible for responding to, quantifying, and reporting emissions events.
The new app enables clients to create custom forms to fit the specific needs of their business. Teams can collect and integrate field data to fulfill key organizational functions like regulatory and voluntary workflows. This includes field inspection data (e.g., maintenance and leak information) and other operational data (e.g., truck tickets, field tests, product quality tests, etc.).
With the app’s offline capabilities, users can submit data from the field using a phone or tablet, even when the device is disconnected from the internet. It will then automatically sync to the Validere platform once an internet connection is available. This enhanced connectivity removes the distance between the office and the field, simplifying workflows across the organization and giving managers and executives real-time data — backed by measurement science — to make accurate and timely emissions-related and operational decisions.
“Companies are missing the connectivity of field data, operating conditions, and emissions measurements to achieve their carbon reduction and sustainability goals,” says Kayla Ball, Chief Product Officer at Validere. “We leverage our platform and our expertise in measurement science to quantify the magnitude of emissions events and improve confidence in operational decisions to reduce the time it takes to address them.”
The new mobile app is set to launch on the Google Play Store for Android devices this month and on the Apple App Store for iOS devices in Q2 2023.
In addition to the app, the new smart alerting feature helps users address emissions events or events outside of normal conditions by integrating all the relevant information from their field, operational, and emissions data into one place. Users can easily configure alerts to correlate information from both emissions systems and operational data sources. This allows them to track and contextualize emissions events to quickly address issues and quantify the associated emissions. Learn more about all the new features.
"The release of these new features will help our customers focus on the true core issue: emissions quantification,” says Nouman Ahmad, Validere Co-Founder and CEO. "In order to make real progress with emissions reduction, core operational data must be linked together with an advanced ecosystem of technology to unlock true quantification."

Everynet, one of the world’s largest network operators for national LoRaWAN® networks, announces it is working with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to offer long-range wide area network connectivity on the providers’ carrier-grade national LoRaWAN networks around the world.
AWS IoT Core for LoRaWAN is a fully managed LoRaWAN Network Server (LNS) that allows customers to connect wireless devices to AWS using the low-power LoRaWAN technology.
Now, with Everynet’s nationwide, neutral-host LoRaWAN networks, AWS IoT Core for LoRaWAN provides a seamless way to help AWS customers simply connect devices at scale to the cloud without having to deploy and manage the radio networking infrastructure, such as gateways and connectivity backhaul. This eliminates the need to build out and manage dedicated LoRaWAN networks.
The network is available now to AWS customers across Everynet’s national LoRaWAN network footprint in the United States, with plans to expand globally in the coming months.
Benefits include
Low-cost connectivity. Users can avoid the expense and long-term resource investment needed to implement and manage a dedicated LoRaWAN network. It requires no upfront network CAPEX and connectivity is consumed on an ultra-low-cost messaging plan.
Expediate time to market. Quickly and securely connect LoRaWAN devices to the cloud – at scale – via AWS IoT Core for LoRaWAN, reducing the time to deployment from months to minutes and speeding time to revenue.
Simplified billing. With AWS IoT Core for LoRaWAN, powered by Everynet connectivity, customers will receive a single, consolidated bill from AWS encompassing messaging and connectivity. There are no upfront commitments or minimum fees. Subscribers receive simple, transparent billing directly from AWS. Participation in the public preview is free of charge.
"AWS IoT Core for LoRaWAN with Everynet connectivity provides customers with a low-cost, plug-and-play solution that simplifies the process of connecting wireless devices to the cloud at scale,” explains Vitaly Kleban, Everynet co-founder and CTO. "From the start, we have been dedicated to making LoRaWAN more accessible to help address environmental, business, and societal challenges. Working with AWS to offer our carrier-grade LoRaWAN national network to their customers across our global network footprint is a big step forward in that accessibility. This simplifies and reduces the expense of connecting wireless devices to the cloud at scale."
“LoRaWAN is becoming the technology of choice for IoT deployments that require long range and low power consumption,” said Yasser Alsaied, Vice President of IoT at AWS. “LoRaWAN network operators are building new types of public infrastructure to meet future IoT networking requirements. Enabling our customers to deploy LoRaWAN devices using public networks not only reduces deployment efforts, but also brings new business opportunities for our customers. Working with Everynet was the natural next step for us as we expand our efforts to support the LoRaWAN landscape.”
Quext, a leader in smart multi-unit dwelling technology, is currently using AWS IoT Core, with Everynet LoRaWAN connectivity, to operate a LoRaWAN device that enables building managers and residents to control smart door locks and thermostats through a single application. “At Quext, we’re focused on delivering cost-effective and streamlined smart apartment technology that boosts property values, simplifies building management and improves resident satisfaction. Access to the Everynet LoRaWAN network globally through AWS IoT Core is providing us with the most efficient and immediate way to meet this goal,” explains Tray Johnson, CTO at Quext.
