Business Wire
Novatel Wireless, Inc. (Nasdaq: NVTL), a leading provider of
intelligent wireless solutions, today announces that it has begun
commercial shipments of its generation-skipping telematics solution
– the MT 3060. The MT 3060 is an advanced OBD-II plug-and-play
device for commercial and consumer telematics markets.
Novatel Wireless is actively supporting many opportunities at
various stages of rolling out commercial and insurance telematics
programs, both in the Americas and EMEA, including the previously
announced RAC Motoring Services contract in the United Kingdom.
“We're seeing a strong pipeline of opportunities for the MT 3060
and are rapidly responding to the needs of this emerging market
segment,” says Joe Peterson, VP of Sales for Novatel Wireless’ M2M
business unit. “We’re keenly focused on further growing our
opportunity pipeline in both established and new channels, and are
very pleased with the market interest we are seeing.”
The MT 3060 is a plug-and-play, self-installed device that can
be deployed in minutes by any driver to collect and control
critical vehicle data, and securely deliver that information to the
cloud. The MT 3060 simply inserts into the OBD-II port of a
vehicle, without taking a vehicle out of service. It avoids costly
and timely professional installations, and allows for scalable
application platforms, provisioning and customer service models in
the commercial telematics and consumer telematics markets. It also
supports all five vehicle engine OBD-II protocols. So no matter the
application --- fleet management, usage-based insurance, or driver
behavior management – or the region of the world, the MT 3060 is
the ideal option for customers charged with lowering upfront
telematics costs while improving safety and productivity.
The MT 3060 boasts a highly sensitive 1000 Hz sampling 3-axis
accelerometer and GPS along with advanced technology for accurate
impact detection -- enabling it to detect driver behaviors such as
vehicle speed, location, hard braking, cornering and acceleration.
The MT 3060 further optimizes network connectivity performance by a
high efficiency innovative antenna design and disconnect alert
feature using an on-board backup battery.
The MT 3060 provides the most flexible means of collecting
critical vehicle information and connecting it to end-user
applications for a variety of business critical needs. It is
designed for full compatibility with Novatel Wireless’ N4A™
Communications and Management Software (CMS) and N4A Device
Manager, which accelerate customer application integration to
provide device provisioning, deployment, shipping, monitoring, and
tracking worldwide. It is complemented by Novatel Wireless’ new MT
Monitor mobile application. This mobile application is designed to
simplify the out-of-the-box experience for MT 3060 and provides an
easy way to install and monitor the device. The mobile application
will be available for both Android and iOS based smartphones and
tablets. The MT 3060 platform will also include optional features
like Bluetooth connectivity to enable low power sensor management,
personal area networking with smartphone applications and to enable
emergency hands free calling.
