The Weightless SIG today announced availability of Weightless-P hardware and the pre-launch of a Weightless-P Software Development Kit. In conjunction with Weightless Vendor partner, Antenova, Weightless-P hardware is to be shown at CTIA SuperMobility in Las Vegas this week.
The hardware, dubbed the Weightless Ignition Pack, provides Weightless-P network connectivity out of the box.
Fabien Petitgrand, technical representative for the Weightless SIG explains: - We have been working for more than two years now on a technology that significantly moves the LPWAN game on. The Weightless Ignition Pack includes hardware and full Weightless-P software protocol stack combination delivering substantive improvements and competitive advantages over existing IoT connectivity options.
The Weightless Ignition Pack (list price USD$1500) will be made available as part of a pre-launch offer on the Weightless website with a limited number offered to Weightless Developers free of charge. Developers should can visit www.try.weightless.org/ctia for full details of the offer. The packs include a Weightless-P base station, end device modules, antennas, a full Weightless-P protocol stack for the base station, end device and host as well as all necessary cabling. The pack will enable a Weightless-P IoT network to be deployed 'out of the box'.
Professor William Webb, CEO of the Weightless SIG, welcomed the development and comments: - We are delighted to see Weightless-P take this critical step forward in its evolution with hardware coming soon to the development community. On the strategic relationship with Antenova Webb adds:
- The Weightless SIG is more than simply an open standards body, it is a strong and vibrant global community focused on LPWAN technology. We are delighted to be partnering with Antenova who bring world class antenna technology and capability to the Weightless ecosystem.
Weightless-P is an Open Standard for a high capacity LPWAN that is designed for performance. It aims to become the de facto standard for public and private IoT networks.
Weightless and Antenova are natural partners and bring best in class performance antenna technology in their respective ranges. Colin Newman, CEO of Antenova, commented that
- We are delighted to be working with Weightless just now, as the new Weightless-P technology is being launched to the IoT community for the first time. We are very pleased to be offering an antenna solution for Weightless-P, which we will back with our expert antenna integration and support services.
