GovernmentVAR Product of the Week: Mobile Edge Manager
Smaller than a tablet PC and weighing less than two pounds, the appliance manages industrial sensors as well as all major UHF, HF, semi-active, and active RFID readers through a Web interface, allowing users to execute inventory and asset management business rules that can reference and update data from enterprise applications, including SAP and Oracle. Those rules cache only significant events, not raw sensor data, which conserves WAN bandwidth and reduces communications costs.
The Blue Vector Mobile Edge Manager includes global positioning capabilities to support business rules that vary by location, and automatic device health monitoring to ensure functionality. A self-contained battery backup allows the appliance to operate for extended periods without external power.
