Barcelona, Spain, March 1, 2017: Ingenu Inc., the company that delivers purpose-built IoT connectivity, and Datorá Telecomunicações Ltda.has announced the launch of the Machine Network in Brazil.
The Internet of Things (IoT) network, powered by Ingenu’s RPMA (Random Phase Multiple Access) technology, will serve Brazil’s population of over 200 million, providing connectivity for IoT/M2M applications in sectors like agriculture, environmental monitoring, logistics and smart city.
Datora will deploy the Machine Network first from the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil’s third-largest state in terms of GDP, and then roll it throughout Brazil, with expected completion in late 2018. The network will be integrated with its IoT Connectivity Abstraction Layer Solution (IoT CAL Solution), which allows different types of seamless connectivity for its clients.
“The Brazilian market is rapidly expanding its focus on IoT connectivity to bring useful new applications to the region,” said Tomas Fuchs, Chief Executive Officer of Datora Group.
Ingenu is currently building out its Machine Network in the USA and is on pace to have over 100 major metropolitan areas covered by the end of 2017. The company is also partnering with global strategic companies, like Datora, to build country-wide public networks specifically for IoT traffic in their respective countries.
“Ingenu’s partnership with Datora is the company’s largest deployment in the Latin American market to date,” said John Horn, Chief Executive Officer, Ingenu.
