Adaptive Network Solutions now accepts PayPal as instrument of payment

Dresden, Germany - June 28, 2011
Due to the steadily increasing number of requests, the management
board of A.N. Solutions decided to provide its customers beside the
conventional instruments of payment the additional possibility of settling
bills using PayPal from now on.
"We have observed more and more in recent time, that many of our customers are limited in the
use of classical instruments of payment for settling the bills for their obtained products and
services, either they can not or do not want to use them at all or they do have to spend large efforts
for using them", said Thomas Lerm - CEO of Adaptive Network Solutions GmbH. "Die addition of
PayPal into the list of the supported payment methods was therefore the next logical step in a trade
world more and more dominated by cashless payments" - Thomas added.
"All of our goods and services can therefore be paid using PayPal from now on, if desired" said
Thomas Lerm. "We are hoping, that this step of integrating a professional payment service provider
will be accepted widely by our customers. Along with our professional design services, this will
provide even more value for our clients, and help fulfill our one-stop-shop philosophy more
effectively."

Applications - December 2, 2009
Dresden, Germany - December 2, 2009 - Adaptive Network Solutions, a leading system design
house, today announced the launch of the new toolset for the development of 868/915 MHz
wireless sensor network applications in energy management, smart metering, industrial and
building automation, and more. The easy-to-use toolset includes @ANY900 RF modules, USB
dongles, development tools, and embedded software, supporting IEEE 802.15.4-based protocols,
including ZigBee PRO, 6LoWPAN, as well as proprietary solutions. Combined with Adaptive
Network Solutions' RF design and customization services, these tools empower OEMs and system
integrators to take their new products from concept to market faster and more cost-effectively.
"We brought together crucial design elements that ensure the success of our client's wireless
project," said Thomas Lerm, CEO of Adaptive Network Solutions GmbH. "Those elements are the
high-performance wireless hardware components and mesh networking software, accompanied by
professional design and customization services at each stage of the product development process.
For the first time, OEMs and system integrators can get all key design elements from a single
source. Now that also applies to the popular Sub-1 GHz applications."

MAC Suite (SMS) toolchain, fully compatible with Atmel's BitCloud ZigBee stack and other third
party software, including 6LoWPAN-based solutions;
- Wireless design services: Professional services, covering a complete design cycle, from
concept to market, as well as on-demand expert services that can be tapped at any stage of the
product development cycle.
@ANY900-1 is an ultra-low power IEEE802.15.4/ZigBee RF module for Sub-1 GHz ISM band. The
tiny module features an exceptional sensitivity of -110 dBm that results in the line-of-sight range of
up to 500m. Featuring the built-in chip antenna and 2MBit memory extensions, @ANY900 module
presents a future-proof, fully integrated solution for the system integrators and OEMs. @ANY900-1
RF modules are fully pin-compatible with @ANY 2.4 GHz hardware products, and interoperable
with corresponding Atmel's ZigBit(TM) modules. @ANY900-1 RF module is scheduled to achieve
ETSI Certification in Q1 of 2010.
@ANY900 USB dongle is a handy USB extension that enables easy access to mobile & portable
devices via reliable USB connectivity and can be used for monitoring & control of wireless network
systems. Based on @ANY900-1 RF module, the @ANY900 Dongle makes integration a breeze,
while the built-in chip antenna enables rapid design-in, requiring no RF knowledge and benefiting
from the standard USB interface.
Smart MAC Suite (SMS) toolchain offers easy control of @ANY platform's functionality via AT
commands to support all IEEE 802.15.4-based functions, as well as facilitates addition of numerous
custom features. SMS Base version supports standard application scenarios, such as Pointto-Point & Star, while SMS Pro version facilitates development of complex applications and
supports additional topologies with static routing.
