IRVINE, Calif., March 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lantronix Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRX), a global provider of compute and connectivity IoT solutions, today announced the addition of the new M114 CAT-1BIS modem to its family of M110 mobility solutions.

“The cellular router and gateway market is driven by the growing need to connect assets and workforces in remote and temporary locations as enterprises digitalize their operations,” said Jacques Issa, vice president of Marketing at Lantronix Inc. “A trusted resource for IoT solutions that deliver reliable and secure connectivity at the edge, Lantronix is pleased to expand its M110 mobility solutions family with the new M114 CAT-1BIS modem.”

Berg Insight also forecasts that the global market will grow at a CAGR of 12.1 percent in the next five years, reaching $2.5 billion in 2027.

Delivered in a cost-effective, small form factor, the low-power M114 CAT-1BIS modem provides serial-to-cellular communication with the coverage, reliability and speeds of the existing CAT-1 network, using a single antenna design. It is ideal for industrial applications, including automation, M2M, door control systems, escalators, elevators and machine sensors.

The M114BIS modem’s key features include:

• Compact Design. With a low footprint and small form factor (60 x 66 x 21.7 mm), M114BIS is ideal for use where space is at a premium.
