The Kontron M2M Smart Services Developer Kit enables more efficient enterprise solutions by generating a faster time to market through the quick development and deployment of M2M applications connectivity and performance.

In the years to come most electronic devices will connect to the Internet. Analysts estimate that tens of billions of devices will communicate in this decade. By deploying smart services on the machine-to-machine devices OEMs will be able to expand their solutions to meet these new market opportunities. Developers of the emerging smart services need a simple, yet powerful M2M device to test their application’s connectivity and performance. OEMs can reduce time-to-market by using Kontron’s M2M Smart Services Developer Kit, which was co-developed with Intel.

The Kontron M2M System works out of the box on Wi-Fi and is 802.15.4 ready. 3G WWAN is either installed or can be easily enabled by dropping–in a pre-certified PCI Express mini card module and SIM for 3G/4G for wireless connectivity application testing. The external USB ports allow easy use of M2M SDKs. There is ample storage space for M2M smart service applications, middleware and OS on the internal microSD card and by using the externally accessible microSD slot. With a built-in accelerometer, dual HDMI and HD audio support, Kontron’s M2M System enables both movement tracking as well as A/V intensive smart services applications.
