Supplying a proactive software strategy for your digital home equipment

Service providers and Wi-Fi customer premises equipment (CPE) manufacturers want to offer a broad variety of easy-to-install devices and new, innovative services with fast time-to-market (TTM) and low total cost of ownership (TCO).

IOWRT is a Commerical Open-Source Software (COSS) that combines technology from the OpenWrt* community with carrier-grade requirements from the Broadband and IoT industry, resulting in a platform-independent gateway software based on OpenWrt*.

IOWRT is the most flexible and innovative open-source operating system (OS) for broadband and IoT devices on the market.
