Mouser secures global distribution deal

Mouser Electronics has entered into a global distribution agreement with Siretta, a leading global manufacturer and developer of Internet of Things (IoT) products, software and complete end-to-end solutions.

As part of the agreement, Mouser Electronics becomes an authorised distributor of Siretta's advanced mobile broadband technologies, including its lines of SNYPER network signal analysers, high-speed QUARTZ industrial routers and ZETA modem starter kits — all designed for a variety of IoT, industrial and transportation applications.

The Siretta SNYPER-LTEM (GL), now available from Mouser Electronics, is a high-performance, multi-language network signal analyser dedicated to surveying LTE Cat M, LTE Cat NB IoT and 2G/GSM Global networks. The powerful SNYPER summary page displays percentage thresholds to determine the most suitable mobile network operator (MNO) available and the performance of a ‘preferred’ MNO can be evaluated against the other networks.

High-speed industrial routers

Siretta’s high-speed EU industrial routers include the QUARTZ-LTE dual-port LTE routers (EU) and the QUARTZ-COMPACT single-port 4G/LTE routers (EU), which enable industrial IoT applications to transfer large amounts of data over a cellular network. Both routers offer upload speeds up to 50 Mbps, with fallback to 3G/UMTS or 3G communication (respectively), should 4G/LTE be unavailable.

The QUARTZ-LTE router enables fast downloads up to 100 Mbps, with dual SIM backup, dual-port Ethernet capabilities and Wi-Fi or GNSS asset tracking/management options. The QUARTZ-COMPACT router offers download speeds of up to 150 Mbps, a single SIM slot, 10/100 Ethernet LAN port and serial port for serial-to-IP transfers, which can be swapped out for an optional GPS.

Both routers contain QUARTZ software (which offers support for VPN security) and function across the European (EU) 4G/LTE bands. The routers are said to provide a “robust industrial design and strong resistance to EMI and are ideal for applications requiring local or remote communications”.

ZETA family of modems

The Siretta ZETA modem starter kits include all the necessary antennas, serial cables, multi-region PSU and power cables to aid developers in evaluating the use of ZETA modems in their IoT applications. The ZETA family of modems connect equipment to the LTE Cat 4, LTE Cat 1, LTE Cat M, and LTE Cat NBIoT networks, and provide backward compatibility to the existing 3G/UMTS and 2G/GSM cellular networks.

Mouser also now offers a comprehensive portfolio of Siretta connectivity solutions customisable to individual requirements, including Alpha, Delta, Echo, Mike, Oscar and Tango series antennae designed for 2G, 3G, 4G, Wi-Fi, GPS/GLONASS/Galileo, Bluetooth and ISM applications
