WALTHAM, Mass., Dec. 15 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Red Bend Provides Firmware Over-the-Air Updating and Device Management for the
World's First WiMAX/EVDO Dual-Mode USB Data Modem
Red Bend Software, the market leader in Mobile Software Management (MSM), today announced that C-
motech Co., Ltd., the world's number one supplier of wireless data cards and modules, has adopted Red
Bend's vRapid Mobile(R) for firmware over-the-air (FOTA) updating and vDirect Mobile(TM) for device
management (DM) in the CMU-300 USB data modem, the world's first WiMAX/EVDO dual-mode USB
modem. Red Bend's MSM solutions will enable important firmware updates to be delivered over the air and
will enable standards-based configuration and management of the CMU-300, which is available in the United
States through Sprint as the U300.
The C-motech CMU-300 is currently the first device in the world that supports both EVDO, a 3G standard
for high-speed wireless broadband, and WiMAX, a 4G technology for more advanced data transfer speeds
that is compatible with HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access). C-motech's customers are able to
roam between 3G and 4G coverage areas in the United States because of the CMU-300's dual-mode
capability while also receiving new functionality and software improvements over the air with Red Bend's MSM
solutions.
"C-motech is deploying mobile software management from Red Bend because we understand the
importance of MSM to a quality user experience," said Lee Jae Man, CEO of C-motech Co. Ltd. "As
consumers around the world continue to adopt 3G and 4G technologies and expect greater connectivity
wherever they live and work, Red Bend's MSM solutions will enable our users to get the latest software
updates and feature improvements to keep their dual-mode CMU-300 operating at top performance."
With vRapid Mobile FOTA, which has been deployed in more than 620 million mobile devices,
manufacturers and operators benefit from reduced support costs and increased consumer satisfaction by
remotely updating firmware with new functionality and software improvements. vDirect Mobile is the industry's
leading independent device management client offering built-in support for WiMAX and interoperability with
any Open Mobile Alliance DM server (OMA DM). It enables operators to provision, configure, support and
update mobile devices over the air.
In addition to USB modems, Red Bend's MSM solutions are continually being adopted for use in mobile
broadband PC cards, machine-to-machine (M2M) wireless modules, mobile handsets and other wirelessly
connected devices. To date Red Bend's software products have been deployed in 455 device models by the
world's leading manufacturers.
