Polte and Altair Semiconductor announced a collaboration to integrate Polte’s cellular-based location technology with Altair’s ALT1250 cellular IoT chipset.
The ALT1250 is Altair’s dual-mode CAT-M& NB-IoT solution. It is the market’s smallest and most highly integrated commercially available cellular IoT chipset, featuring ultra-low power consumption, GNSS location positioning, a hardware-based security framework, and an RF front-end supporting all commercial LTE bands.
Enabling miniature module sizes of less than 100 square millimeters, the ALT1250 is ideally suited for a range of industrial and commercial IoT applications. Polte’s patented Location-as-a-Service (LaaS) solution leverages ubiquitous 4G & 5G cellular networks and cloud computing to enable highly accurate location data indoors and outdoors. Business processes, customer self-service automation, and better decision making insights enable consumer, commercial, and industrial businesses to capitalize on location, which is essential to how we all work, live, and play.

With the explosive demand for smaller and low powered IoT devices, Polte’s C-LoC technology is a great complement to the integrated GPS and GNSS capabilities of our dual-mode ALT1250 chipset.
Ed Chao, CEO, Polte
As more and more IoT use cases demand indoor, outdoor, and everywhere in-between location, Polte’s software-only solution embedded on Altair’s dual-mode ALT1250 chipset delivers location services – at a lowercost, using less battery, more securely.
