Mouser signs global distribution agreement with Siretta to deliver IoT mobile broadband technologies
M
ouser Electronics, the authorised global distributor of semiconductors and electronic components, has entered into a global
distribution agreement with Siretta, a leading global manufacturer and developer of Internet of Things (IoT) products, software, and complete end-to-end solutions. As part of the agreement, Mouser Electronics becomes an authorized distributor of Siretta’s advanced mobile broadband technologies, including its lines of SNYPER network signal analysers, high-speed QUARTZ industrial routers, and ZETA modem starter kits — all designed for a variety of IoT, industrial, and transportation applications.
The Siretta SNYPER-LTEM (GL), now available from Mouser Electronics, is a high-performance, multi-language network signal analyser dedicated to surveying LTE Cat M, LTE Cat NB IoT, and 2G/GSM Global networks. The powerful SNYPER summary page displays percentage thresholds to determine the most suitable mobile network operator (MNO) available and the performance of a “preferred” MNO can
be evaluated against the other networks. Siretta’s high-speed EU industrial routers include the QUARTZ-LTE dual-port LTE routers (EU) and the QUARTZ-COMPACT single-port 4G/LTE routers (EU), which enable industrial IoT applications to transfer large amounts of data over a cellular network. Both routers offer upload speeds up to 50 Mbps, with fallback to 3G/UMTS or 3G
communication (respectively), should 4G/LTE be unavailable.
The QUARTZ-LTE router enables fast downloads up to 100 Mbps, with dual SIM backup, dual-port Ethernet capabilities, and Wi- Fi or GNSS asset tracking/management options. The QUARTZ-COMPACT router offers download speeds of up to 150 Mbps, a single SIM slot, 10/100 Ethernet LAN port and serial port for
serial-to-IP transfers, which can be swapped out for an optional GPS. Both routers contain QUARTZ software (which offers support for VPN security) and function across the European (EU) 4G/LTE bands. The routers provide a robust industrial design and strong resistance to EMI and are described as ideal for applications requiring local or remote communications. The Siretta ZETA modem starter kits include all the necessary antennas, serial cables, multi- region PSU and power cables to aid developers in evaluating the use of ZETA modems in their IoT applications. The ZETA family of modems connect equipment to the LTE Cat 4, LTE Cat 1, LTE Cat M, and LTE Cat NBIoT networks and provide backward compatibility to the existing 3G/UMTS and 2G/GSM cellular networks. Mouser also now offers a comprehensive portfolio of Siretta connectivity solutions customizable to individual requirements, including Alpha, Delta, Echo, Mike, Oscar, and Tango series antennas designed for 2G, 3G, 4G, Wi-Fi, GPS/GLONASS/Galileo, Bluetooth, and ISM applications.

NXP delivers premium Wi-Fi 6 performance to Samsung Flip 3 Smartphones
N
XP Semiconductors’ WLAN8101H and WLAN8201C front end modules (FEMs) are enabling Wi-Fi 6 connectivity in the
Samsung Flip 3. The FEMs are said to deliver an excellent combination of output power, linearity and efficiency to enable a fast and reliable Wi-Fi connection with minimum impact on battery life. The latest generation of Wi-Fi (802.11ax or Wi-Fi 6) delivers many performance enhancements, including a virtually unlimited number of devices, reduced latency and increased network capacity and efficiency. NXP’s Wi-Fi 6 FEMs deliver the RF performance needed to help reach the full potential of this new standard. This enables the Samsung Flip3 to deliver fast and reliable Wi-Fi performance to consumers.

devices are part of the QUBiC SiGe WLAN portfolio, which offers an optimized combination of output power, linearity
and efficiency. This enables an extended transmission range and improved receive sensitivity even at the most demanding
Wi-Fi 6 modulation formats, making for a better overall user experience in terms of speed and coverage. The WLAN8101H also helps boost Bluetooth performance. “Connectivity makes a huge difference in the consumer experience,” said the R&D group at Samsung. “NXP’s FEM devices offered the right balance between performance and power consumption to allow consumers to enjoy fast connectivity without negatively impacting battery life.” “As the number of connected devices increases, so does the need for Wi-Fi 6, which addresses the ever-increasing need for more data across more devices,” said Doeco Terpstra, vice president and general manager Smart Antenna Solutions, NXP. “Our FEMs support fast and reliable connectivity to allow consumers to capitalize on the benefits of Wi-Fi 6.”
