Huawei,a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider, unveiled a series of products heralding the company’s first foray into telematics solutions.
At the 2013 Mobile World Congress, Huawei showcased its vehicle-compatible 3G and LTE communication modules, MU609T and ME909T, its 3G mobile hotspot, DA6810, and its 3G onboard diagnostic (OBD) box, DA3100.
Huawei’s products for vehicles provide stable wireless solutions in diverse environments regardless of weather conditions, terrain, or reliability of power supply, providing new development opportunities for the automotive industry, and unsurpassed convenience for car owners.
“Huawei is excited to welcome in an era of smart vehicles with the availability of products that integrate wireless communications and automotive electronic technologies,” says Kevin Liu, VP, Mobile Broadband Division, Huawei Consumer Business Group.
“Huawei’s telematic solutions are designed to enable cars and other transportation vehicles to exist in a seamless wireless mobile environment, so that users are truly able to enjoy the benefits brought about by ICT services.”
The MU609T and ME909T are Huawei’s first 3G and LTE communication modules for vehicles. They are both pin to pin compatible, and cater specifically to the working environment temperature and power consumption of the automotive industry.
The MU609T can support up to 14.4M under the HSPA+ network, and the ME909T can support up to 100Mbps under the LTE network. Both modules are pre-installed with GPS and eCall. In addition, the FOTA remote firmwire upgrade capability makes it possible to integrate new technologies into existing MU609T and ME909T modules.
The strengths of MU609T and ME909T have been recognised by leading global car manufacturers, and will be integrated into the wireless communication systems of some of the world’s top vehicles in the near future.
The DA6810 3G WiFi Box creates 3G WiFi hotspots in mobile environments to provide high-speed Internet connectivity on-the-go. Once installed with the HUAWEI DA6810 3G WiFi Box, a vehicle becomes interactive, high-tech and networked, providing owners with a high-speed Internet and audio-visual entertainment experience.
The DA3100 is an on-board diagnostics (OBD) data transferring system that enables insurance providers and fleet management companies to retrieve information such as location, vehicle conditions and driver habits.
This in-car system transfers information in realtime through a 3G network to the telematics service provider (TSP) platforms of various third-party entities.
It also enables vehicle owners to activate the car horn, headlights and windows remotely via smartphone apps. The DA3100 is powerful yet easy to install, is not limited by geographical region or vehicles types, and can be activated upon installation.
