Altair LTE chipset selected to power Franklin LTE products

Franklin Wireless Selects Altair’s Verizon Wireless Certified Chipset to Power LTE-Enabled Devices in Several Global Markets.
“We are very pleased to have been selected by a leading mobile and wireless innovator such as Franklin Wireless,” said Eran Eshed , Co-Founder and VP of Marketing of Altair. “Having Verizon Wireless certified chipsets in its products will accelerate Franklin’s time to market as well as reduce its investment in commercializing their Altair-based products in the U.S. market. We look forward to working closely with Franklin as they expand their differentiated product portfolio into LTE.”

“Altair’s LTE solution was a natural choice for us to integrate into our LTE-enabled devices, not only in the U.S., but in several additional and important worldwide markets,” said OC Kim, President of Franklin Wireless. “The level of maturity achieved from successfully deploying across numerous global carrier networks, combined with the performance and low cost offered by Altair’s chipset, will enable Franklin to differentiate our products and shorten our time to market.”

Altair is a leader in the global LTE chip industry, with Altair-based products currently commercially shipping into numerous carrier networks around the world in America, Europe, Japan, China and India. Altair became one of the industry’s first chipset suppliers to pass Verizon Wireless chipset certification earlier this year.
