Azure provides support to a wide variety of OEMs and application providers whose products are enhanced by or benefit from wireless networks but do not possess in-house wireless competencies or expertise.

The world's leading providers of automated guided vehicles, videoconferencing solutions and electronic healthcare applications are among the partners who rely on Azure to enhance their products and the benefits of those products to their customers with wireless networks.

Azure offers a broad range of services to fulfill OEM requirements for wireless solutions:

• Consulting services
• Design engineering services
• Legacy wireless network evaluation
• Prototype development and evaluation
• Turnkey design & implementation services
• Testing & Debug

Many of these OEM partners also incorporate Azure's Universal Wi-Fi-Gateway into their products and systems, allowing their clients to enjoy the benefits of mobility and leverage wireless network investment.  As the only dual mode, 802.11a/b/g device with Ethernet and serial interfaces, fast-roaming capabilities diversity antenna systems and robust security, they have found the Gateway to be the perfect reference design for incorporation into their products and disparate client wireless environments.  Azure also provides antenna, cabling and power systems interfaces to many of its OEM partners.

If you are a manufacturer of a product, system or application that could benefit from mobility and portability or are looking to improve your product's versatility and marketability by incorporating standards-based wireless Ethernet as a communications option, Azure is the partner you can rely on to make it happen.
