        gateway solution for connecting to a wide range of external sensors,
        especially in remote locations.

Sessions and Demonstrations
At the show, Digi representatives will conduct sessions, preview upcoming products and showcase current solutions including the following:

    --  Pre-Conference Symposium: On Tuesday, June 27, from 10:00 a.m. - 10:30
        a.m. in Meeting Room 211D, Brent Nelson, senior product manager at Digi
        International, will be presenting, "Maximizing LTE Technology for Remote
        Sensor Monitoring" as part of the Embedded Technology - Designing for
        the Industrial IoT track. The session will review critical developments
        in cellular LTE roadmaps, including emerging and sunsetting
        technologies, most important to sensor OEMs and solution providers. This
        discussion will give an overview of the LTE roadmap, a description of
        new technologies, and how they specifically address application
        challenges in the industrial sensor markets.
    --  Embedded Theater Session: On Wednesday, June 28, from 2:00 p.m. to 2:30
        p.m., Quinn Jones, senior business development manager at Digi
        International, will be presenting, "The Transformative Power of Cellular
        IoT for Embedded Sensor Applications." The discussion will focus on the
        impact of new 3GPP standards for LTE-M/Cat-M1 and NB-IoT, and their
        transformative effect on market applications for embedded sensors. The
        session will assist developers in understanding the new tools and
        capabilities that are helping OEMs unleash innovation and bring more
        reliable, secure and cost effective solutions to market.
    --  Digi XBee Cellular - Since the introduction of the North American (LTE
        CAT 1) version, Digi XBee Cellular has been providing a simple path to
        cellular connectivity and solving a major problem for OEMs that need to
        provide cellular solutions for remote equipment monitoring and control.
        At the show, Digi will be highlighting the capabilities and outlining
        the roadmap for the upcoming 3G Global, NB-IoT, and LTE-M variants.
        --  In-booth demo: Digi will be showcasing Digi XBee Cellular's
            brand-new onboard programmability features through a demonstration
            based upon an agricultural application.
    --  Digi Connect Sensor+ - Introduced in March, Digi Connect Sensor+
        provides a "rollout ready" solution for remote sensor monitoring to be
        deployed in low or no power environments previously considered too
        harsh, remote or not economically viable to reach.
        --  BYOS in-booth demo: At the show, Digi will be hosting
            "Bring-Your-Own-Sensor" demonstration where attendees are encouraged
            to bring their sensors to see how easy it is to incorporate them
            into IoT solutions. At the booth, Digi sales engineers will connect
            the provided sensors to a live Digi Connect Sensor+ demo. Within
            minutes attendees will see sensor data (i.e., level, flow,
            temperature, pressure, optical) in the Digi Remote Manager platform,
            or locally using the Digi Connect Wizard mobile application
            connected via Bluetooth.
