Numerex Receives 2010 Satellite Product-of-the-Year Awards

ATLANTA, Feb. 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Numerex Corp (Nasdaq: NMRX), a leading single source provider of secure machine-to-machine (M2M) products and services, today announced that its satellite asset tracking tag, and satellite asset tracking platform have each received a 2010 Satellite Spotlight Product of the Year Award from TMC.

"We are honored to have received this esteemed recognition in the company of other pioneers of the satellite technology industry. This award highlights some of the strategic choices we have made in the past few years, and underlines Numerex's position as a leader in the global Location-Based Services market," said Rick Burtner, Senior Vice President and GM of the Distributed Products group at Numerex.

Numerex's satellite asset tracking tag carries the highest environmental ratings available for any satellite or terrestrial tracking device. It recently received Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance (HERO) Certification and met/exceeded 16 methods within the MIL-STD 810F requirements for environmental testing, opening channels for new sales of the company's products to both military and commercial markets. Passing test protocols under harsh environmental conditions, this is the most rugged satellite tracking tag available today.

Numerex FAST (Foundation Application Software Technology)-based satellite asset tracking platform serves field users requiring immediate visibility into the location and status of their assets anywhere in the world. Delivering satellite data through its cloud-based mapping and management software, it is designed for mission critical responders' operational needs—serving both headquarters and field requirement.  With the ability to map, display and manage tens of thousands of devices in a useful and intuitive format operating through a web browser and a secure internet connection, it allows customers to easily view online maps, schedule tasks, zoom in/out for precise location history and access various activity and maintenance reports. When enhancements or required upgrades are made, no additional downloads are required by customers, which allows for seamless introduction of upgraded features.

"Satellite Spotlight is pleased to grant two 2010 Product of the Year Awards to Numerex for both its satellite asset tracking tag and Numerex FAST-based satellite asset tracking platform.  Numerex has proven their commitment to quality and excellence while addressing real needs in the marketplace," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC.
