PARIS, Dec. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Sequans
Communications S.A. (NYSE: SQNS), a leading provider of cellular
IoT chips and modules for massive and broadband IoT, announced that
Green-GO Digital is using its Cassiopeia CB410L CBRS module to
connect its new Beltpack Sports wireless intercom communications
device. The Green-GO Beltpack Sports is designed to facilitate
coach to coach communications in professional sports teams. It is
connected by LTE technology and designed specifically to run on
CBRS (citizens broadband radio service), a new block of spectrum
allocated by the FCC to enable private LTE networks on a shared
spectrum basis. CBRS provides enterprises in many sectors,
including sports, government, education, industry, and agriculture,
with an affordable way to set up private networks for their
organizations without subscribing to commercial wireless
service.
"It's exciting to see our technology connecting the new Green-GO
device now being used in the world of professional sports," said
Bertrand Debray, EVP of Sequans'
Broadband IoT division. "The Green-GO Beltpack is designed with
features that facilitate ease of use on the playing field, and it
shows how well a private LTE network using CBRS spectrum can meet
the communications needs of enterprises like pro sports teams."
"We selected Sequans' technology to connect the Green-GO
Beltpack Sports because Sequans is an expert in cellular IoT
connectivity with particular expertise in solutions for 3.5 GHz,
the frequency of CBRS, said Joost van Eenbergen, Principal and
Founder of ELC Lighting BV, manufacturer of Green-GO! Digital
Intercom. "Sequans' IoT module is proven reliable in LTE devices
and networks all over the world, and it has all the capabilities we
required for design into the Beltpack, including small size, low
power consumption for long battery life, and most important,
reliability."
The Green-GO CBRS/LTE Beltpack Sports has features designed
specifically for use outdoors, including a backlit display for
easier viewing in sunlight, weather-tight buttons for protection
from rain and for use with gloves. Its four big buttons can be used
all as talk buttons or as a combination of talk and call. The
Beltpack can be easily combined with a wired system by using a
Green-GO Bridge. There is no need for a separate interface to
connect the Beltpack to an existing wired network. By simply
plugging in the bridge and cloning the configuration to the
Beltpacks, the wireless device is fully integrated. Each Green-Go
Beltpack connects to a port on a bridge as a remote user, providing
the same user interface and audio quality of a wired beltpack, with
the security and reliable connectivity of LTE.
"As the exclusive US distributor of Green-GO! Digital Intercom,
we are excited to introduce this revolutionary product through our
network of authorized dealers," said Jim
Casey, President of Nova Lume LLC. "Having worked with the
premier professional sports league in the US for almost two years
to implement this product across all 32 teams in time for the 2021
season, while dealing with the pandemic restrictions, was a
remarkable accomplishment and prepared us to provide this solution
to a wide range of use cases needing secure, reliable, wireless
intercom."
