Mformation Technologies has signed an interoperability partnership with Sequans Communications to provide a wide range of support programs to help service providers manage and control devices over a WiMAX (News - Alert) network.
 
Sequans offers wireless equipment manufacturers a chipset solution for virtually every WiMAX application.
 
Mformation’s (News - Alert)  OMA DM server provides WiMAX service activation, remote configuration and ongoing life-cycle support for WiMAX-capable devices.
 
Under the agreement, Sequans has integrated an OMA DM client directly into its chip software and has joined the Mformation WiMAX Self-Certification Program.
 
Craig Miller, VP of marketing at Sequans noted the importance for devices and services to work out of the box for successfully building the WiMAX service ecosystem.
 
“Partnering with Mformation allows Sequans to enable their customers to confidently and affordably produce devices that are compliant with industry standards and will work for virtually any WiMAX service provider,” Miller said.
 
Mformation’s CEO Mark Edwards (News - Alert) also said, “The WiMAX ecosystem is building. Working with leading chipset players like Sequans is an important step toward ensuring that more of the device makes and models entering the market can be supported on WiMAX networks automatically.”
