Inseego's Rugged Skyus 500 Router Named IIoT Product of the Year

The Skyus 500 gigabit IIoT router by Inseego, a 5G and intelligent IoT device-to-cloud solutions provider, has been named “Industrial IoT Product of the Year” by IoT Evolution, earning a respected award as of one of the best, most innovative products powering the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). 

“We’re honored that IoT Evolution has recognized the excellence of our durable, flexible IIoT 4G LTE-Advanced edge routers,” said Ashish Sharma, CMO and EVP IoT & Mobile Solutions, Inseego. “The Skyus portfolio is engineered to meet the demands of first responder fleets, military, transportation, smart agriculture, and countless other customers who require the very best wireless connectivity products. That’s what we design and deliver.” 

The Skyus 500 is a full-featured IIoT router that enables LTE-Advanced Pro peak speeds of up to 1.2 Gbps, best-in-class security, Power over Ethernet (PoE), WiFi, Bluetooth, and industrial-grade design. The family includes a compact and configurable option, the Skyus 300, ideal for space-constrained applications. The Skyus family of IIoT routers is powered by Inseego’s MiFi iQ technology platform, which combines enterprise-grade security with innovative antenna design and algorithms optimized for different use cases.

 Solis Energy, a manufacturer and provider of outdoor power systems for the industrial automation and control, transportation, telecommunication, security, and government markets, uses the configurable model in the Skyus 300, which is their most recent partner solution with Axis Communications, a global network video provider.

“We’re committed to providing reliable, innovative, and flexible solutions for customers to take control of their outdoor power requirements. Our latest partner solution for critical monitoring applications includes Axis’ rugged outdoor surveillance system for remote deployments that operate in challenging environments — near pipelines, flare stacks and power grid substations — so we need routers that can withstand harsh conditions and send video reliably,” said Robert Reynolds, President, Solis Energy. “The Skyus routers and Axis’ surveillance cameras have answered the call and the integration has been flawless.”  

“It is my pleasure to recognize the Skyus 500, an innovative solution that earned Inseego the 2019 Industrial IoT Product of the Year Award,” said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. “I look forward to seeing more innovation from Inseego in the future.”
