Systech Corporation (Systech) is a California corporation founded in 1981 and headquartered in San Diego, California.[1][2]

Product lines

Systech Corporation designs and manufactures a variety of network conversion gateways,[3] device servers and switch products for Internet Protocol (IP) communications and in existing non-IP based systems and networks. The product lines also include payment gateways, dial to IP converters, cellular gateways, remote access and management software, remote access software and control automation software.[4]

The SysLINK M2Mgateway was awarded M2M Evolution Magazine's 2014 Evolution Product of the Year, issued to Industry Innovators.[5] The SysLINK Gateway is able to communicate and bridge a wide variety of protocols and standards while providing local intelligence to analyze, filter and take action.[6]

SysSCRIPT enables customers to interconnect Industrial IoT devices without the need for software development teams.[7] SysSCRIPT enabled Systech to win the Best Gateway Strategy Award in IoT Evolution's Eighth “Battle of the Platforms” on August 17, 2015.[8]

Markets

The product lines serve the Internet of Things (IoT) market with particular emphasis on the Machine to Machine (M2M) submarket and the larger Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) submarket.[9][10] Over 350,000 Systech devices are installed worldwide.[11]

Interoperability

Systech is a member of the Open Connectivity Foundation (OCF)[12] whose objective is connecting the 25+ billion[13] Internet of Things (IoT) devices across multiple platforms and Operating Systems using a common, interoperable approach that includes security. A recent World Economic Forum report notes the Lack of Interoperability or Standards is the greatest barrier inhibiting business from adopting the Industrial Internet (of Things) along with Security.[14]

Systech was an early adopter when it completed certification of the SysLINK M2M Gateway as ThingWorx Ready[15] as part of the ThingWorx Partner Program[16] before PTC acquired ThingWorx.[17]
