SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
April 11, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
Echelon Corporation (NASDAQ: ELON) today announced the signing of a
value added reseller agreement with Allied Telesis, Inc.
Under the terms of the global agreement, Allied Telesis will
be authorized to incorporate Echelon's intelligent lighting
solutions into its smart city and smart campus projects, and
Echelon's industry leading IoT products into Allied Telesis'
projects requiring building automation and controls.
Echelon's intelligent lighting solutions include the all-new
LumInsight® 2 Cloud Central Management System, and
LumInsight IoT Base Stations. These next generation products turn
otherwise ordinary LED streetlight retrofits into 21st century
smart city networks capable of fine-tuned control, and can form the
basis for future smart city applications.
Echelon's industry leading Industrial IoT (IIoT) solutions for
building automation and controls include the just announced
SmartServer™ IoT, the first edge server to incorporate the most
common industrial device protocols. This allows existing and new
networks of such devices to seamlessly connect to the cloud and
make their data available for use by modern analytics and
Artificial Intelligence (AI) engines. With Echelon's embedded
architecture, customers can easily and cost-effectively embrace,
extend and enhance existing IIoT installations to avoid costly 'rip
and replace' projects.
Echelon's installed base of more than 140 million embedded
controls around the world offers the potential for companies like
Allied Telesis to provide a new range of solutions to customers.
"We are excited about the potential for the Allied Telesis-Echelon
partnership, because of Echelon's IIoT presence and
technologies. Echelon's abilities to embrace, extend and
enhance existing networks of control devices will enable us to
provide additional value to our customers," according to
Taki Oshima, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer at Allied Telesis.
"We look forward to extending our global reach to prospective
customers with Allied Telesis for intelligent lighting and
IIoT projects," said Ron Sege,
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Echelon. "Allied
Telesis' solutions-based philosophy and reputation for reliability
are perfect fits for our markets."
