Vodafone Qatar and Netcomm partner to bolster M2M in Qatar

DOHA, QATAR: NetComm Wireless Ltd and Vodafone Qatar Q.S.C. have formed a strategic partnership to extend Vodafone Qatar's fixed and mobile networks to devices and machines which are used to enable smart city applications such as security systems, intelligent transport systems, smart metering and smart medical devices.

The new agreement follows from the success of NetComm Wireless' existing partnership with Vodafone Global Enterprise for delivery of the Vodafone MachineLink 3G across Vodafone Global Enterprise's markets.

With Vodafone's experience in connecting machines, businesses of all sizes across all industry and service sectors are set to benefit from the ability to remotely monitor and manage previously isolated assets from a central location in real-time using Vodafone Qatar.

Vodafone Qatar is committed to support the Qatar National Vision 2030 and this partnership with NetComm Wireless will deliver the new technology required to drive the continued expansion of one of the world's fastest growing economies.

The Vodafone MachineLink 3G, developed by NetComm Wireless, has been certified by Vodafone Group and is ready for deployment to business customers on the Vodafone Qatar network.
