“IoT/M2M is completely changing the mobile industry.”
Starhome Mach Individualizes the Global Internet of Things with New Portfolio
Zurich, Switzerland; 08 October 2015 – Starhome Mach, the global leader in mobile inter-carrier services, today announced the launch of its new M2M/IoT portfolio which provides operators, system integrators, and service providers with new ways to globalize the Internet of Things and differentiate service levels on an individual device level basis.
Itai Margalit, CEO at Starhome Mach
“IoT/M2M is completely changing the mobile industry.” says Itai Margalit, CEO at Starhome Mach “The demands of global manufacturing and mobility dictate that M2M devices need to connect anywhere in the world, but each one with its own specific requirements. With up to 50 billion devices forecast by 2020, the industry must adopt new methods to individualize the global Internet of Things. Starhome Mach has developed the solutions operators need to compete on this global stage while differentiating their services at the device level to increase desirability and optimize margins.”
IoT/M2M visibility and control is a key requirement that many operators are lacking today. Starhome Mach empowers operators to identify inbound devices and take appropriate action. This ranges from offering the host differentiated service for the device to steering the device away from its network if it is poorly configured or has no commerical value.
At the heart of any IoT/M2M portfolio is enablement: managing bulk SIM activiation, lifecycle management, and enterprise billing. Starhome Mach provides further differentiation of services with multiple coverage and technology choices. For example, providers can decide upon SIM localization or optimized roaming routes depending on the enterprise cost profile and quality requirements.
IoT/M2M can also place enourmous risks on networks. Poorly engineered devices consume signalling without generating operator revenue. Simultaneous restart situations can put the whole network at risk. Starhome Mach provides control mechanisms to not only limit risk but also to maximize margins for the operator and enhance the service provided to both machines and people. For example prioritizing heart monitors above electricity meters in high load situations.
“Operators must compete in the global IoT/M2M market by differentiating their solutions against existing players. Starhome Mach’s core expertise has been built over 20 years working with mobile network operators to solve the issues associated with worldwide mobile roaming. Our focus now is to provide operators with the tools to globalize their IoT/M2M services, allowing any device to connect where it needs with an optimized margin for the operator,” concluded Margalit.
