M2M Areas
• The M2M Platform allows the development and / or quickly test
of different components for an M2M solution
Examples of customers use :
• Solution : Customer looking for a complete solution for M2M
business need will have access to advices, development -testingsimulation environment, equipment loans, ...
• Evolution : Customer with an existing M2M solution that aims to
change or evolve can use the simulation environment, or new
components (software, sensors, ...)
• Test : Customer wishing to test the sensor can quickly develop a
minimal application allowing to test and to see the interest

ETSI Use Cases Possibilities
Example : Use the permanent Com4Innov M2M test bed to support:
•
•
ETSI PlugTest with test equipment from Com4Innov
Automated interoperability test bed for ‘M2M Transport/Access Layers ‘
(e.g. 6Lowpan, CoAP)
Com4innov integrates M2M with LTE
• 4G Gateways will allow to
– use the existing LTE network of the platform for sensor data transfer
(measurement, alarm …)
– Take advantage of the LTE low latency
•
Test with LTE ready components
