Webtech Wireless Announces 3G WT7000H and WT7000H+ Locators
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Oct. 5, 2012) -Webtech Wireless Inc. (TSX:WEW), a leading provider of vehicle fleet location-based services (LBS) and telematics technology, today announces the immediate availability of their next generation award winning WT7000 locators with 3G connectivity. Webtech Wireless is one of the first GPS/AVL solution vendors in North America to offer 3G telematics capabilities that are fully certified and approved by major carriers in both Canada and the US.
"By partnering with a variety of leading global suppliers in the development of our new WT7000H and WT7000H+, we were able to speed our time to market with our next generation products," says Gary Zywiecki, VP Engineering, adding, "We were also able to reduce our certification time by taking advantage of the recent expansions in our telematics systems lab, allowing us to receive certifications in record time while further increasing the reliability of our systems."
"When Webtech Wireless first introduced telematics to the world, GPRS/2G technology was the emerging standard and we adopted it well before it was available in North America. Today, our mobility partners have been encouraging all vendors to move their M2M devices, particularly telematics, to their 3G networks. By being one of the first vendors to certify 3G locator devices on the largest mobility networks in both Canada and the US, we are not only demonstrating our continued innovation and leadership, but also future proofing our products for customers over the long term," said Scott Edmonds, President and CEO.
The WT7000H and WT7000H+ are among the most advanced telematics devices available to the commercial and government markets. Boasting a wide variety of input sources and configuration options, these devices support a large variety of solution sets, including integration with the Webtech Wireless award winning MDT3100 In-Cab solution to offer fully automated Electronic On Board Recorder solutions to the trucking industry.
Both the WT7000H and the WT7000H+ are available for immediate delivery.
