Mercury, Plum Participate in 'OpenSync Summit'... "Actively Targeting Overseas Markets Including Japan and the US"

Information and communication equipment specialist Mercury will participate in the ‘OpenSync Summit 2024’ held in Taipei, Taiwan from the 12th to the 13th.

According to Mercury on the 11th, the ‘OpenSync Summit’ is an event hosted by Plume Design Inc., a global smart Wi-Fi management solution company, and this is the second time it is being held following last year.

OpenSync is an open-source software service platform that provides and manages user devices and network management elements to offer customized cloud services.

The event aims to further expand the OpenSync community and consists of various learning sessions such as announcements of the new OpenSync roadmap, success stories, and strategy sharing with leading companies participating. In particular, it serves as an event to foster relationships between manufacturers equipped with OpenSync functions and operators using them, as well as to create new business opportunities.

Plume, the organizer of the event, is a cloud-based software and smart services company headquartered in Silicon Valley, providing services such as Wi-Fi optimization, security, and access control. Currently, it serves over 400 operators worldwide, with a rapidly growing cumulative subscriber base of 55 million.

Mercury will participate in the event this year as well, based on strategic collaboration with Plume following last year. The company explained that it plans to introduce its products to distributors, chipset companies, and related operators selling products equipped with Plume’s OpenSync functions, further strengthening relationships.

At the event, Mercury will set up a separate booth to actively showcase its Wi-Fi 6 embedded PoE AP product, which obtained Plume Lite (OpenSync Lite) approval last October, as well as premium Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 products scheduled for release in the second half of this year.

A Mercury official said, “The Wi-Fi 6 embedded PoE AP is a product developed in close cooperation with Plume to solve channel interference issues faced by leased line operators supplying internet in multi-family housing among Plume’s Wi-Fi services. Through this, it is possible to provide customers with superior Wi-Fi performance and high-quality service, making commercialization in the Japanese and US markets highly likely soon.”

He added, “We plan to actively target overseas markets including Japan and the US with differentiated products and services, showcasing various products equipped with OpenSync functions.”
