(NASDAQ: NVTL), a leading provider of intelligent wireless networking solutions, today introduces the N4A cloud-based Device Manager 4.1 which provides enterprise customers with improved time-to-market and tools to effectively manage M2M assets through their entire lifecycle. The N4A Device Manager assists with activation, deployment, maintenance and day-to-day operation in one single, robust, secure and scalable platform.

“Providing reliable and flexible device management is important to our customers as they roll out their applications and services offerings. We now provide an enhanced web-enabled cloud-based device management platform with added scalability, security and an intuitive web interface,” said Rob Hadley, CMO of Novatel Wireless.

The N4A Device Manager 4.1 provides two main functions: device configuration and service management.

The N4A Device Manager is highly scalable and can support customers ranging from small enterprises to tier-one carriers.

The N4A Device Manager offers easy-to-use system administrative tools and interfaces allowing customers to automate processes and make device management simple and cost-effective and lower the total cost of ownership for the M2M assets deployed by the customer.

• Strong diagnostic capabilities with logs and notifications delivered via emails and SNMP traps
• New single sign-on capabilities with support for LDAP-based authentication facilitating easy integration with enterprise systems
