Strategic Partnership for Edgility with NEXCOM

The Group's virtual networking and edge computing solution to be pre-installed on NEXCOM's 5G network appliance

BATM (LSE: BVC; TASE: BVC), a leading provider of real-time technologies for networking solutions and medical laboratory systems, announces that its Telco Systems subsidiary has partnered with NEXCOM International Co Ltd ("NEXCOM") (TPEX: 8234), a leading supplier of network appliances, to provide the Group's Edgility virtual networking and edge compute solution pre-installed on NEXCOM's 5G-ready network appliance.

The partnership with NEXCOM, which is headquartered in Taiwan with operations in China, Japan, US, UK and Italy, provides a further route-to-market for the Group's Edgility solution. By bringing together BATM's software with NEXCOM's hardware, customers can benefit from simpler and streamlined deployment, management and orchestration of networked devices and applications, whilst being cost effective. Purchasers of the NEXCOM appliance will contract directly with BATM if they choose to use Edgility.

Edgility is available pre-installed on NEXCOM's DTA 1164W uCPE, which provides full support for 5G and IoT connectivity. It is designed for the small-office-home-office (SOHO) and mid-range enterprise market that require advanced tools for deploying and running services and applications at the network edge as well as for the simplified management, security and maintenance of edge devices.

Dr Zvi Marom, CEO of BATM, said: "We are delighted to have formed another partnership for our Edgility solution, which is now available pre-installed on NEXCOM's 5G network appliance for small and medium-sized enterprises. As these businesses move their IT functions to the network edge as part of their digital transformation initiatives, they need an agile, cost-efficient solution to simplify the deployment and management of edge devices while reducing operational costs, which is what we are providing through this partnership with NEXCOM. Our selection by NEXCOM reflects the strength of our offering in the rapidly growing edge computing market, and is another example of our strategy across our business to accelerate the adoption of our solutions via collaborations. We continue to see increased momentum in this side of the business and we look forward to reporting further progress."
