Nessum* is the latest solution for IoT communications. For wired
communication, Nessum leverages the installed infrastructure through
its support for various types of cables, such as powerline, coaxial,
flat and twisted pair; Nessum can also achieve short range wireless
data transmission either in air or water.
Nessum features reliable data transmission and intelligent device
management for smart city, residential, commercial and industrial
applications. The SC1320A IC applies Nessum technologies to enable
IoT applications efficiently and cost-effectively.
