TEXA is known and trusted for products such as the TEXA MOBILE Diagnostic (TMD) a small box enabled with GPS and GSM/GPRS used to locate vehicles exchange real time information with drivers as well as monitor components and electronic systems remotely. TEXA has recently launched another patented device called TEXA CARe which can be installed in a vehicle’s On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) socket. This device supports the personal safety of drivers by contacting a 24 hour operations centre in case of an accident while also providing a direct line between drivers and workshops for communicating in real time about vehicle faults and malfunctions. TEXA CARe is currently available in Italy and is set to be launched in other European markets soon.

In a rapidly developing and data consuming market with surging global demand for connected car technology TEXA has faced these challenges using Interoute’s flexible and innovative infrastructure that adapts and scales to the company’s evolving needs and expanding business. Interoute provides TEXA with highly redundant low latency private connectivity through an international MPLS VPN between the company’s headquarter its foreign branches in Poland Spain France UK Germany Brazil USA Russia Japan as well as to many distribution centres across Europe and US. In addition to these services TEXA also uses the flexible scalable Interoute Virtual Data Centre cloud computing resource.

TEXA is one of the pioneers of the connected car concept and designs with an eye for future scenarios and new diagnostic opportunities related to the spread of hybrid electric and fuel cells and sees Interoute as a key ICT partner in this vision.

Manuele Cavalli TEXA’s Co-Founder and Technical Director said: "TEXA’s solutions for connected vehicles and tele-mobility represent a further step towards the mobility of the future which has the car at the core of the network. Our goal is to offer increasingly high safety levels for drivers and vehicles and to create a customised service for any need. Interoute is unique and irreplaceable in many ways and our collaboration is set to continue in the future and become even stronger: in parallel to the expansion of our offering throughout the world there is a growing need for connectivity for these vast numbers of devices. We are confident that Interoute can respond with a solution designed for our specific needs with the usual security and scalability that sets it apart."

Mark Lewis EVP Communications & Connectivity at Interoute said: "We are proud to work closely with such an innovative company.
