MicroPower Technologies Joins Sprint M2M Partner Network

SAN DIEGO --(Business Wire)--

MicroPower Technologies, Inc., an award-winning provider of surveillance solutions optimized for rapid, cost-effective deployment, has entered into an agreement with Sprint (News - Alert) that enables the company to leverage Sprint's network as an additional channel to transmit wireless video. The addition of the Sprint network takes MicroPower's video surveillance solutions a step further by enhancing its wireless capabilities with Sprint's secure and pervasive network, which reaches more than 282 million people nationwide.*

The MicroPower Rugged-i™ is an integrated, solar wireless IP video camera that can be deployed in any location as it is not constrained by wires or cables for power or data. The flexibility of the Rugged-i enables users to augment existing IP surveillance systems or install new camera solutions in areas that may not be accessible with traditional cameras. MicroPower systems are ideal for remote locations and a comprehensive solution is maximized by the addition of a 3G/4G uplink from Sprint to secure video transmission to the back haul.
