Richardson RFPD Inc. announced the debut of a new publication, IN FOCUS magazine. The first issue features machine-to-machine (M2M), reflecting the company's extensive commitment to the M2M market.

Richardson RFPD offers a broad range of M2M wireless connectivity products, from low cost embedded modules to full-function gateway solutions designed to address diverse applications, such as public safety, oil and gas, utility, mobile data, transportation, medical, and the transaction processing markets.

Earlier this year, Richardson RFPD launched its M2M Tech Hub, a micro-website featuring the latest products and innovations from the world's leading M2M suppliers, along with extensive technical resources and tips, and online shopping.

IN FOCUS: M2M presents a magazine-format review of Richardson RFPD's involvement in the M2M market, including a letter from company president Greg Peloquin, supplier news, articles on market trends, technical articles, and an interview with Sierra Wireless Director of Sales, Fernando Morales.

The new publication is the latest addition to Richardson RFPD's award-winning training and education resources. The company was recently named as one of the top two Best Training and Education websites in Microwaves & RF's first annual Best of Microwaves Industry Awards. The award included this description, "Offering design-level and manufacturing expertise over a variety of areas, Richardson RFPD is a large distributor with impressive resources that works hand-in-hand with its customers to bring them a small-company, close-to-the-customer feel. In addition to its engineering team, the firm offers white papers, tutorials, videos and handy tools like calculators and converters.
