Understanding M2M Devices

Submitted by JBiron on Mon, 11/14/2011 - 11:33

I spend a lot of time talking to folks in the M2M ecosystem: network carriers, device manufacturers, systems integrators, and customers. I've come to realize that many of the terms used in M2M are fuzzy, and this fuzziness can lead to some confusing conversations. Worse than confusion, the inconsistency makes it very difficult for the uninitiated to make sense of the M2M "industry", and leads to the perception of wild-west fragmentation.

I recently spent quite a lot of time Googling around for a good summary of M2M device technologies that I hoped to share on this blog. Unfortunately I couldn't find one. I could not even find good definitions of the device "classes" (as I refer to them) on their own. What is a cellular module? What is a modem? What is this thing that has embedded Linux: a modem?

So, to fill this void, I give you this article on M2M Devices Types. Comments welcome!
