Strategic Partnership for Industrial IoT Excellence
CargoBeacon has partnered with Panasonic Industry Europe to develop the EverTag product line — a range of rugged, compact tags designed for tracking and monitoring assets in challenging industrial environments. This collaboration brings together Panasonic's world-class wireless connectivity expertise and CargoBeacon's innovative Wirepas Mesh solutions.
EverTag product family — Built with Panasonic PAN1780 Bluetooth 5.3 modules
Why This Partnership Matters
Panasonic Industry Europe has been instrumental in supporting CargoBeacon's design engineers throughout the development of the EverTag product line. Using Panasonic's PAN1780 Bluetooth 5.3 Low Energy module, we've achieved the required tag reach, reliability, and worldwide certification needed for industrial-grade asset tracking solutions.
EverTag enables customers in industries like healthcare, manufacturing, logistics, construction, and warehousing to track the exact position of assets and manage their inventory efficiently with real-time and historical data streams — vital for AI analytics of asset locations.
Why Panasonic PAN1780 Bluetooth Module?
The PAN1780 was chosen for its exceptional performance characteristics that align perfectly with the demanding requirements of industrial Wirepas Mesh deployments:
Great Radio Performance
With 8dBm output power and excellent receiver sensitivity, the PAN1780 enables wide mesh coverage with fewer anchors, simplifying infrastructure and reducing deployment costs significantly.
Long-Range Capabilities
Extended range enables reliable communication across large industrial facilities, warehouses, and outdoor environments — critical for effective Wirepas Mesh network performance.
Global Certification Coverage
Pre-certified in major global markets including the US, EU, China, Japan, and Korea, allowing us to accelerate time-to-market by bypassing lengthy certification processes and scale globally without compromising quality and performance.
European Supply Network
Panasonic's historically strong European supply network ensures reliable component sourcing with lower transport impact — enabling faster development cycles and more sustainable operations.
"Working together with Panasonic helped us to move faster and stay aligned during our product development phase. Having a local partner with global relevance also made it easier for us to source required components quickly and with lower transport impact."
"Panasonic's PAN1780's pre-certification in major global markets allowed us to accelerate time-to-market by bypassing lengthy certification processes. This gives us the confidence to scale globally without having to compromise in quality and performance."
