Leveraging on Rabyte’s in-house Design support structure and Supply Chain Management (SCM) capabilities across multi-layered customer base through-out India, Telit will be able to penetrate deeper and nurture the upcoming M2M applications that support the world of M2M connectivity.

As part of its core distribution strategy, Telit-designated partner would play a critical role to provide Technical & Sales support to customers that will help shorten the design cycle and faster time to market.
