Hospitals, medical labs, biotech companies and medical device manufacturers need real-time access to up-to-date information.  Integration of patient monitoring equipment, fetal monitors, temperature, glucose level monitors, blood analysers, and other diagnostic devices into the IoT ecosystem is critical for maximum efficiency at minimum cost.

The projects to integrated these devices and sensors have been ongoing for decades.  However, funding allocation, numbers of new devices and the speed at which they are being integrated into the IOT seems to have taken a sharp upswing in recent years.

Over the last year, Perle Systems increased the number of Healthcare customers using Perle device connectivity products by 62%. For instance, St. Joseph’s Healthcare use Ethernet Extenders to enable 100% Wi-Fi coverage throughout the hospital. OSM integrated Serial Terminal Servers into the OPUS::L solution to correlate lab data from blood analysers and transmit the results to the correct doctors and wards. Perle device networking hardware can be found providing IoT Ethernet connectivity at Healthcare industry leaders like Baxter International, McKesson, Sanofi, Telnet Healthcare and more.  A partial list of customers and case studies can be found here.
