Arrow Electronics Showcases Latest IoT and Sensing Technologies for Accelerating Smart City Transformation in Hanoi

Hanoi is among one of three major Vietnamese cities that are being
transformed into digital and interconnected urban areas by 2020¹.
With the launch of Vietnam’s first IoT Innovation Hub in Hoa Lac Hi-Tech Park
in Hanoi earlier this year, the city has intensified efforts in accelerating
research and development as well as establishing a platform to support
entrepreneurial innovation in IoT technologies.

“As one of the fastest-growing economies in ASEAN, Vietnam is now
progressing into a smarter IoT nation. We look forward to working with global
companies such as Arrow to further develop the IoT ecosystem and platform for
driving best-in-class IoT technologies exchange and adopting best practices,”
said Mr. Le Ngoc Tuan, IoT product manager from FPT Corporation, a leading IT
and telecommunications company in Vietnam, in the opening remark of the
seminar.

At the seminar, engineering experts from Arrow and major
technology suppliers introduced the latest pioneering IoT and sensing
technologies and products, including:

• Analog Devices’
  SmartMesh connectivity, intelligent machine condition monitoring, and 3D time
  of flight sensor.
• AVX’s connectivity
  devices with LTE, BT, WLAN, ISM and GPRS capability/I/O filtering and
  decoupling/pulse power and energy harvesting.
• Neoway’s IoT offerings.
• ON Semiconductor’s
  Bluetooth low energy connectivity/proprietary RF/image and smart passive
  sensors.
• Silicon Lab’s wireless
  Gecko series/Zwave, sub-Ghz/Wifi solution, wireless Xpress/sensors/Bluetooth
  mesh smart lighting.
• TE Connectivity’s data
  storage products including stacking/power connectors, grounding and antenna.
