When you start talking about
the present, you soon find
yourself in the future

Wireless communication is already a fact of life for millions of people. Today, even machines and devices

are enabled to converse easily with one another. The technology behind this little miracle involves Wireless

Modules and Wireless Terminals from Siemens. They weigh just a few grams, use mobile radio to set up

“conversations,” as it were, between objects.

Since the introduction of our worldwide first GSM module we are focusing exclusively on the development,

manufacturing and marketing of Wireless Modules. At the same time, a global network of customer support

was set up to ensure that our customers would always benefit from quick and efficient service. This strategy

has proven its value and will continue doing so in the future.

 Great goals
to talk about

We have two explicit goals: first, we will supply you with the best modules available

thanks to our innovations and leading-edge technology. Secondly, we will act as a

full-fledged partner for end-to-end solutions. In other words, we offer comprehensive

support during the development and implementation phases of your project. We will

stand by you in word and deed from the idea’s inception all the way to market launch

and beyond, if you wish.

We have become the global pacemaker in the field of wireless communication, who

have set benchmarks. And we will continue doing so in the future as well. Our mission

is plain and simple: Make the world talk!

 There are a lot of good
reasons for talking
together
A vending machine that announces it is almost empty can be refilled in good time to ensure uninterrupted service.

A car that can automatically find the right itinerary to avoid traffic jams will save the driver invaluable time. And

a sea mammal, that can communicate via satellite will enable the Sea

Mammal Research Unit of St. Andrews university in Scotland to achieve

new groundbreaking insights in mammal research.

These are only a few examples of what Wireless Modules can do. For

your business, Wireless Modules mean a sharp increase in productivity,

owing to more efficient processes. And improved service for your

customers means greater customer

satisfaction. Make your decision for

the modules of a leading-edge player and you are benefiting from the best

quality available, “Made in Germany”. The more powerful the modules, the

better your entire system will function. This translates as shorter and faster
communication lines, saving both energy and time. This, in turn, will result

in a clear reduction in costs and improve your competitiveness. We feel this

is something well worth talking about.

 Areas we can
talk about
With Siemens Wireless Modules we are enabling

a world of innovative applications. The market

for wireless communication applications is grow-

ing by the day. Navigation systems in cars are

one example, emergency callsystems another.

Vending machines that automatically inform

the supplier when they are empty are already

available. Cell phones that can receive e-mail

with MMS are becoming more and more

common, as are high-bay shelves that indicate

how full they are.

Indeed, Wireless Modules have earned them-

selves a leading position in the industrial,

automotive and consumer segments. In fact,

they already play a greater role in our daily life

than we might imagine. In other words: they are

involved in the conversation as we speak.
