Electronic Systems Technology Inc
For over 30 years, Electronic Systems Technology, Inc. has specialized in the
development and manufacturing of digital data (non-voice) radio transceivers for
use in industrial wireless networking applications. With reliance on wireless
communication in the modern world, the global modernization of industrial control
systems now require the benefits gained by use of wireless technology. EST designs
and produces these specialized, hardened products to operate and survive in these
difficult conditions.
The Company designs, develops, manufactures and markets the ESTeem® line
of industrial wireless products and accessories. The Company’s products
provide innovative communication solutions for applications not served or underutilized
by conventional, commercial grade communication systems. The Company’s
products are part of the ESTeem® Industrial Wireless Solutions for commercial,
industrial, and government arenas both domestically and internationally. The
Company’s products are marketed through direct sales, sales representatives,
and resellers.
The Company’s ESTeem® industrial wireless products provide communication
links between computer networks, network enabled devices and mobile devices
without cables. The widespread use of networked computer systems in business,
industry and public service and the adoption of mobile devices in all aspects
of modern life has created an environment where the wireless network is no longer
a convenience but a necessity. As wireless networking proliferates through the
modernization of the industrial sector the need for products such as the ESTeem®
industrial wireless (specifically designed for rigors of operation in the industrial
environment) will be increased dramatically. These wireless networks will be
the backbone connections to the Internet for cloud based services such as the
upcoming Internet of Things (“IoT”) and Industrial Internet of Things
(“IIoT”).
All of the ESTeem® models come with industry standard Ethernet (Internet)
communications ports and legacy serial ports to provide the broadest range of
connections for both new and legacy hardware. The combined features such as
self-healing repeaters, Mesh networking, long range operation and outdoor weatherproof
cases make the ESTeem® products unique in our market space.
The Company was incorporated in the State of Washington in February 1984, and
was granted a United States Patent for the “Wireless Computer Modem”
in May 1987, and Canadian patent in October 1988. The Company established a
"doing business as" or "DBA" structure, based on the Companys
registered trade name of ESTeem® Wireless Modems in 2007. The Company continues
to provide product improvements and enhancements to incorporate continuing technological
developments, in response to customer needs and market opportunities. New opportunities
may arise from changes in FCC regulations or technological developments, both
of these are reviewed by management to identify both marketability and profitability.
These next generation industrial wireless products will improve our networking
capability with higher data rates, improved support features and updates to
the latest wireless standards. The ESTeem® Horizon Series will expand our
market opportunities.
In an effort to maintain and expand our customer base in the industrial control
marketplace, we team with major automation hardware vendors such as Rockwell
Automation. 2015 marks the 24th anniversary of our relationship with Rockwell
Automation through their Encompass Program. Rockwell Automation has the largest
market share in the United States and is a major entity in the world wide automation
and controls market place. The benefit of the Encompass program and similar
partnering efforts is increased exposure to markets that would not otherwise
be cost effective to have a direct marketing channel presence in.
The Company’s products compete in an environment of rapidly changing
technology. This environment results in the necessity of the Company to be continually
updating and enhancing existing products, as well as developing new products
in order to remain competitive.
