OptConnect ema:USB
The ema:USB includes onboard intelligence for monitoring, management, security, reporting, certifications, and autonomous self-healing of lost connections. The ema:USB is truly intelligent, truly managed, and truly monitored – and that makes all the difference.
Easy to Implement and Connect
OptConnect ema:USB is fully certified as an end-user modem, eliminating the need for carrier certification of a customer’s equipment.
The ema:USB helps businesses get to market faster, reduce costs, and increase every project’s success rate. With plug-and-play functionality built right in, the ema:USB offers instant connection to IoT equipment and removes typical stumbling blocks.
emaLink – A proprietary pre-built software interface that allows the equipment to ‘peek’ into the management and monitoring functionality, including:
Glimpse – A unique capability that offers cellular connection status directly on screen, minimizing on-site time.
BoardID – An emaLink command that specifies the Board ID. This custom ID can be used by the customer machine for identification purposes and displayed in Summit.
BoardNotify – Allows any Internet-connected device to share small chunks of data to ema:USB via the Summit API secure channel. This protects the user’s host application from unnecessary sends or poll data, to reduce overall data usage and power consumption.
emaConnect – A ready-to-install USB driver that makes ema:USB truly plug and play for customer machines.
Summit – A robust, cloud-based customer dashboard that simplifies device management from anywhere. Summit APIs also allow integration with an existing platform.
