THE MACHINE NETWORK IN INDIANAPOLIS
The first nationwide network for machines is now available in Indiana.
RPMA is officially available in the capital of the great state of Indiana. With just 7 access points, RPMA, or Random Phase Multiple Access, blankets the city with connectivity for the Internet of Things. Immediately available, the Machine Network provides dedicated IoT connectivity to a population of over one million people, and a countless number of “things”.
RPMA technology enables machines and devices to communicate more efficiently and reliably than ever before. With the launch of the Machine Network in Indianapolis, municipalities, government agencies and businesses are able to tap into its always-available, ubiquitous coverage to build Internet of Things solutions.
The Machine Network is rapidly being deployed across the country. To find out when the network is coming to your area, check out our nationwide coverage map.
Bringing the Internet of Things
TO INDIANAPOLIS
Ingenu’s Machine Network build-out is now underway across the United States, and is targeted to serve 30 major metropolitan areas by the end of 2016. The Machine Network currently provides more than 100,000 square miles of wireless coverage for a host of IoT applications.
“Indianapolis is the first metropolitan area in the Midwest to be supported by the Machine Network, which is a testament to the smart initiatives that the market is driving,” said Tom Gregor, president and general manager of the Machine Network, Ingenu. “The scalability of RPMA enables implementation of applications as needs grow, and the opportunities that the technology brings to the region’s traditional industries is immense.”
The Internet of Things (IoT) is supposed to have billions of devices connected that will bring greater efficiencies and savings. But how exactly is that done? The IoT requires well placed sensors that transmit information wirelessly back to the cloud or other storage medium. That information is either used live for things like monitoring or control or is analyzed later to optimize and automate processes. In this document, we will show you ways in which this vision has already been achieved around the globe using Ingenu’s wireless technology, RPMA.
The IoT requires wireless technology to connect devices that collect information. Ingenu is a wireless connectivity provider dedicated exclusively to machine connectivity. Ingenu’s Random Phase Multiple Access (RPMA) technology provides wireless connectivity to devices allowing them to communicate back to their owners. RPMA has connected smart devices for years. RPMA is a thoroughly proven technology enabling dozens of private networks including verticals such as the smart city, smart grid, asset tracking, and oil and gas since 2008.
In this collection of case studies, we’ll explore ways in which RPMA has brought value to citizens, cities, governments, businesses and enterprises. While some of these case studies are specific to a particular vertical, many may be generalized across other industries. The value of the IoT is real today, and RPMA makes that value real.
