SimpleComTools Joins Rabbit Semiconductor's Third Party Vendor Program
to Promote the COM1000™ Industrial Internet Appliance
Davis, CA – Rabbit Semiconductor is
pleased to announce the addition of SimpleComTools' COM1000™ Industrial
Internet Appliance to the Rabbit Semiconductor Third-Party Partner
e-Store. Rabbit Semiconductor provides the Third-Party Partner e-Store
as an online showcase for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) of
products that use the Rabbit microprocessor.
The COM1000 is a rugged hardware device that can be seamlessly integrated
into LAN, WAN, and wireless projects. Powered by a RabbitCore RCM2100,
the COM1000 offers a unique blend of Serial and TCP/IP communications,
digital and analog inputs, relays, and embedded applications - all combined
to help serve many of today's unique and often complex industrial networking
challenges. Its embedded applications provide quick and easy means of
connecting serial devices to IP networks, Internet enabling legacy devices,
or integrating remote devices with today's advanced 3G wireless data
networks.
“The Third Party e-Store allows our customers to discover what other
companies have done to make our microprocessor and RabbitCore Module
even more exciting!” states Kevin Lettow, Rabbit Semiconductor's Manager
of Consultants & Partners Program and the Third Party e-Store. “Our
Third Party Partners have created a wide range of tools, development
aids, and high-tech product solutions that fit our customer's most demanding
needs; the COM1000 Industrial Internet Appliance is a fine
example of what can be done using the RabbitCore Module to start.”
The COM1000 can be used in any number of applications. It can manage
and maintain network connections, provide router-like intelligence, the
ability to serve as a both serial and RS485 device servers, and the embedded
applications to transfer files and send remote notifications without
any specialized backend software. Ideal for access control, vehicles
diagnostics & control, industrial monitoring, and mobile monitoring,
the COM1000 is a complete and affordable solution that can be hooked-up
and be ready-to-go in minutes.
“As our name implies, SimpleComTools is all about deploying remote monitoring
and control applications simple for systems integrators and application
service providers,” stated Bill Farley, Vice President of Sales and Marketing
at SimpleComTools. “The COM1000 is the flagship of that commitment. It
has the pre-integrated applications integrators are looking for, but
also the flexibility to be adapted to specialized applications.”
Examples of this flexibility are visible in versions of the COM1000
supporting the Omni-Link™ service from Powerweb Technologies (www.2powerweb.com)
and the M2M Portal™ from SensorLogic. Omni-Link™ is an interactive
energy portal designed for advanced energy saving strategies for Fortune
1000 companies. SensorLogic's M2M Portal™ is a web-based, telemetry data
management and communications platform that makes it easy for businesses
to build complete, end-to-end wireless telemetry solutions. In both instances,
the COM1000 is used as the remote edge-appliance that transports the
relevant data to the portal. “SimpleComTools has shown M2M application service providers and others
in need of specialized hardware appliances that they don't have to go
through expensive engineering or R&D to obtain a hardware solution
that meets their needs” states Rebecca League, Rabbit Semiconductor Strategic
Business Development Manager. “By teaming with Rabbit Semiconductor,
they can leverage our expertise as well as the work already done by smart,
progressive companies like SimpleComTools.”
