Toronto, ON - July 2, 2009 - cStar Technologies Inc.,
a leader in two-way wireless data communications
solutions for M2M (machine-to-machine, machine-to-men)
and mobile-commerce applications, announces the
integration of
wire-line components to cStar's wireless
SkyGate®
suite of products. Customers can now select from various
SkyGate® products to suit their
physical layout by choosing wireless, wired, or a
combination of wireless and wire-line components. This
provides total flexibility and cost efficiencies to
customers. Where customers have existing Ethernet
cabling,

plugged in. For customers without existing Ethernet
cabling,
SkyGate® wireless LAN (to wWAN,
Ethernet, Intranet, Internet, etc.) products provide
robust coverage without wireless communications charges
and without the added costs of running cables and wires.
For customers with limited existing Ethernet cabling, a
combination of wireless and wire-line
SkyGate® products provides
flexibility, convenience, and cost savings.
President and CEO of cStar Technologies, Stella Yoon
said, "With our
SkyGate® suite of products, our
customers can have reliable data communication to and
from all corners of their property. They can choose our
wireless
SkyGate® products with robust
coverage from the basement to 40+ stories of concrete
buildings, or our wire-line
SkyGate® products to take advantage
of existing cabling or wiring, or use a combination of
wireless and wire-line
SkyGate® products. Whichever our
customers choose,
SkyGate® provides the ultimate
flexibility to put together a solution that is just
right for them."
