Before developing wireless connectivity solutions, we conduct a discovery phase and feasibility studies to assist our clients in selecting the best-fitting data and network protocols based on specific project requirements such as connectivity range, power consumption, data rate, and deployment environments.
Our wireless connectivity services include network architecture planning and design. Aside from selecting an appropriate architecture pattern (e.g., star, mesh, peer-to-peer) that supports the selected protocols and meets your scalability, redundancy, and communication needs, we will strategically place and configure network nodes and implement security mechanisms such as data encryption in transit and at rest, authentication, and security key management.
ITRex embedded system engineers design hardware platforms using readily available microcontrollers, sensors, and actuators with embedded wireless solutions that support the chosen protocol. We will also select and integrate wireless communication system-on-chip (SoC) solutions and pre-certified modules ranging from LoRa to Zigbee and BLE, as well as antennas optimized for specific frequency bands.
As part of our firmware development services for wireless connectivity implementation, we develop custom drivers that connect communication hardware to operating systems and middleware solutions. ITRex also creates low-power firmware for battery-powered devices, incorporating sleep/wake cycles and utilizing appropriate wireless protocols. Additionally, we enable mechanisms for secure over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates.
Our wireless connectivity expertise includes the implementation and customization of data and network protocol stacks, which ensures that devices communicate effectively with one another. We will also develop software that connects embedded systems to cloud platforms and allows for localized data processing capabilities on devices, reducing latency in industry-specific solutions such as medical and automotive software.
As quality assurance experts, ITRex will ensure that your wireless connectivity solutions meet the desired range, signal strength, and data rate requirements in controlled and real-world scenarios. We will further advise you on regulatory compliance, safety, and performance certifications, perform vulnerability assessments to close security gaps, and ensure that your network can scale to accommodate additional devices.
After implementing wireless connectivity technology, ITRex supports clients on their transformation journey. We can help configure effective tools to monitor network health, data throughput, device status, and performance in real time, leveraging our DevOps and MLOps expertise. Our service offering also includes performance tuning, long-term technical support for connectivity issues, firmware updates, and much more!
Aside from providing voice to connected devices, we keep them secure, up-to-date, and fully functional for the rest of their lifetime. ITRex also helps clients add new devices, nodes, or expand coverage with minimal disruption to their existing system. Finally, we can safely decommission connected devices at the end of their lifecycle, removing them from the network and erasing sensitive data.
We use effective connectivity protocols for low-power and high-bandwidth devices to engineer complete smart home networks that include thermostats, door locks, lighting systems, and other devices made by various vendors. Our team will validate that the system nodes work seamlessly together and are resistant to hacking.
ITRex utilizes wireless connectivity technology for low-latency communications in industrial settings. Our expertise in industrial IoT development enables us to effectively handle miscellaneous implementation challenges—from minimizing power consumption and RF interference to ensuring real-time data exchange and securing your infrastructure.
Our team will assist you in selecting IoT wireless connectivity technologies based on your specific use case, such as monitoring soil moisture and crop condition or establishing near-field communication between equipment. ITRex will ensure optimal signal coverage even in remote locations and design your network for scalability.
Our wireless connectivity expertise includes both high-bandwidth applications, such as telemedicine and medical imaging solutions, and systems that require slower data transmission speeds, such as inventory management software. ITRex’s wireless connectivity solutions incorporate all of the necessary security mechanisms, including end-to-end encryption and role-based access control.
From implementing proximity solutions for asset management to configuring longer-range communication where Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity are unavailable, ITRex can help you track goods across today’s increasingly complex supply chains. We will eliminate data transmission delays, support a large number of assets and devices, and secure your network.
We create embedded wireless connectivity solutions for contactless payments, customer loyalty programs, digital signage, self-service kiosks, and inventory tracking systems with a focus on low latency. To keep cybercriminals from intercepting sensitive data in retail settings, we use network segmentation and strong encryption protocols.
