Telit receives first purchase order from emerging North America car OEM for its new LTE Cat 6 automotive-grade module.

London, 16 June 2017 – Telit Communications PLC (“Telit”, “the Group”, AIM: TCM), a global enabler of the Internet of Things (IoT), has received the first purchase order from an emerging North America car OEM for its LTE Cat 6 automotive-grade module.

Telit’s LTE Cat 6 module, which obtained certification from AT&T in May 2017, will provide high-speed internet connectivity and is expected to start shipping to the North American market in the fall of 2017 and to other markets in 2018.

Oozi Cats, Telit Chief Executive, commented:

“For the past two years, we have been developing a new automotive LTE Cat 6 communication module based on an Intel platform for a new set of requirements from an emerging North America car OEM.

“Besides high-speed, the module was designed with specific attention to cybersecurity requirements in order to support reliable and comprehensive use of over-the-air software update technology. This is critically important for the automotive industry since so much of the car is now software defined.”
