sceme M2M - M2M Lifetime Protection
The market for machine to machine (M2M) solutions is growing steadily and rapidly in the automotive, life sciences, and logistics sectors. M2M units installed in cars, smart power meters, etc. may operate for over 10 years. Ensuring reliability and stability over the entire lifetime is indispensable for M2M solutions that work.
Once M2M devices are installed and configured, they operate in unattended mode over many years. But who makes sure that the wireless connection of such a system is reliable and stable and that the transceiver module does not fail just when it is needed?
sceme M2M runs on the SIM card installed in an M2M device. Every time the system is active but no signal is received, the SIM application measures the time until network coverage is available, including related cell information of the radio network. Thus, a temporary transceiver unit failure and network availability limitations can be constantly monitored.
In summary, sceme M2M is a great platform that offers the following business benefits to the M2M customers of mobile network operators:
- Protection of the M2M units against failures over their lifetime by means of proactive detection of potential device or network coverage issues
- Minimization of M2M unit outages
- Avoidance of ad hoc maintenance costs
- Future-proof investment since the platform is extendible and can manage and submit further data via a single ecosystem
sceme M2M is available through Giesecke & Devrient's worldwide presence.
