On May 24, China Mobile Internet of Things Co., Ltd., Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., and Shanghai STEP Electric Co., Ltd. announced the signing of a cooperation agreement on wireless elevator networking, focusing on the innovative development of the elevator industry, with the goals of safety, intelligence, ecology, innovation and cooperation. The three parties will carry out extensive cooperation for "wireless ladders" and comprehensively promote the development of wireless ladders industry.
 
Elevator is an indispensable "vertical" means of transportation for developing the national economy and improving people's lives. While the number of elevators is increasing rapidly, the safety situation of elevators is also more severe. It has become an inevitable development trend to further strengthen the safety management of elevators by scientific, informational and networked means.
 
The tripartite cooperation monitors elevator operation through wireless elevator technology, ensures elevator safety, improves operation and maintenance efficiency, and promotes the transformation of the traditional elevator industry. At present, the wireless ladder has been deployed in Chongqing, Hangzhou, Wuhan, Xi'an and other places. The next step is to expand the scope of deployment and realize large-scale commercial use. The mission of technology is to solve problems and serve the public. The wireless elevator solution proposed through network innovation will escort the public every time they take an elevator.

Zhao Zhipeng, Vice President of Huawei's LTE Product Line: "The Internet of Things is changing the production and service models of all walks of life. China has come to the forefront of the world in the field of Internet of Things. Huawei is committed to the research and innovation of communication technologies, enabling traditional The digital transformation of the industry. Elevators are the most representative special equipment, and the wireless elevator network is an innovative application based on cellular network technology, which can help the elevator industry reach a new level of safety management. It is hoped that the three parties will strengthen the sharing of technology and market information, and build a wireless network. Elevator’s blueprint for a better development.”
 
Hu Zhitao, Vice President of STEP: “STEP is positioned as a technology-driven company. It has invested in research and development in the field of elevator IoT for more than six years. In terms of cooperation mode, we will jointly expand the ladder industry. STEP business also involves industrial robots, new energy vehicles and other fields, and hopes to have more and more in-depth cooperation with China Mobile and Huawei.” Vice President of Solution Center of China Mobile Internet of Things
 
Company Manager Ding Yuan: "China Mobile Internet of Things has been paying attention to and piloting the elevator Internet of Things since 2008, and it has been deployed on a large scale in many cities. Through cooperation with STEP and Huawei, more advanced communication technologies have been introduced to create a more suitable elevator. Market products that meet the needs of networking. The three parties can cooperate in depth in terms of technology, products, and markets to jointly promote the development of the wireless echelon industry." The Internet of Things
  
technology based on TD-LTE cellular network and the ubiquitous high-quality network of more than 1.5 million base stations of China Mobile Coverage provides a good network guarantee for the development of wireless ladder. The cooperation of the three parties will focus on systematically solving elevator safety problems, strive to build a smart elevator ecosystem, lead the sustainable development of the elevator industry, and make due contributions to ensuring the safety of urban elevator operation, promoting the intelligent development of elevators, and serving the construction of smart cities.
