LTRX Solution Used by Tier-1 Operator for Managing Cell Site Generator
Lantronix, Inc. LTRX has announced a multi-year agreement with a Tier-1 U.S. mobile network operator. The collaboration will enable the digital transformation of more than 50,000 backup power systems at wireless cell sites nationwide, utilizing Lantronix's advanced Edge gateways and cloud-based software to facilitate real-time monitoring, enhance network reliability and significantly reduce operational costs. These backup generators play a crucial role in maintaining uninterrupted mobile service during power outages, supporting critical functions ranging from everyday mobile phone usage to life-saving medical equipment and emergency communication systems. Traditionally, maintaining these generators involved costly and inefficient manual inspections. With Lantronix's Edge Intelligence solutions, network operators gain remote visibility and data-driven maintenance capabilities, cutting operational expenses while boosting system reliability. The deployment leverages Lantronix's FOX Series industrial IoT gateways along with its cloud-based Percepxion platform, offering a scalable, vendor-agnostic solution for real-time monitoring of generator health. Key metrics, such as fuel levels, battery status, oil pressure and coolant temperature, are continuously tracked to enable predictive maintenance, eliminate unnecessary site visits and ensure compliance with environmental regulations. Lantronix, Inc. price-consensus-chart | Lantronix, Inc. Quote The partnership has enabled the mobile network operator to digitize and centralize the management of its nationwide fleet of cell site generators. Notable outcomes include improved network resilience through increased generator uptime, real-time operational visibility with automated alerts for outages and tampering, and secure lifecycle management of connected assets. Additionally, the streamlined integration of millions of devices from edge to cloud has led to greater operational efficiency and cost savings. Beyond generator monitoring, Lantronix's solution also supports expanded infrastructure oversight, including HVAC systems, power regulators, battery banks and power phase and frequency metrics—further enhancing site readiness and reliability across the operator's infrastructure. Recently, Lantronix announced a collaboration with Aerora, a provider of integrated NDAA-compliant propulsion, ground control and AI-powered precision payload systems. This partnership brings cutting-edge Edge AI solutions that accelerate advancements in drones, robotics and surveillance, powered by Aerora's OEM platform for AI-driven visual navigation. In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, Lantronix strengthened its position in AI edge intelligence and industrial connectivity through a series of strategic initiatives. A notable highlight was the company's collaboration with Teledyne FLIR, where Lantronix's Open-Q platform powered an AI-enabled thermal camera for drones, demonstrating the platform's reliability and performance in critical edge vision applications. Further expanding its AI compute offerings, Lantronix launched the Open-Q 8550CS System on Module (SoM), built on Qualcomm's advanced QCS8550 processor. However, despite these advancements and recent acquisitions, Lantronix continues to face headwinds in certain business segments. Revenues from the IoT System Solutions segment, which accounted for 51.7% of total revenues, declined 45% year over year in the fiscal third quarter. The Embedded IoT Solutions segment, contributing 42.1% to overall revenues, saw a more modest drop of 3.7%.

Unusual Machines Signs Lease for 17,000 sq ft Orlando Drone Motor Factory
New facility for dedicated large volume U.S. motor production ORLANDO, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / June 4, 2025 / Unusual Machines, Inc. (NYSE American:UMAC), a U.S.-based manufacturer of drones and NDAA-compliant components, today announced it has signed a lease for a 17,000-square-foot drone motor production facility in Orlando, Florida. The factory will significantly expand the company's domestic manufacturing capabilities. Motor deliveries from this facility are scheduled to begin in September 2025. The facility is designed to support the production of high-performance brushless motors for First-Person View (FPV) and commercial drones. Initially, it will focus on three core motor sizes: 2207, 2807, and 3220. In-house winding capabilities will support both standard and custom KV ratings and hybrid workcells will allow for both high-volume and small-batch production. The space is located near the company's existing headquarters and is an expansion of Unusual Machines' Orlando campus. The proximity to Rotor Riot's technical team and pilot community allows for rapid product feedback and alignment with end-user needs. The production system is designed to eventual scale to monthly production volumes exceeding 50,000 motors. "Our new facility will enable us to build at scale, while also supporting customer-specific variants through flexible workcells," said Brad Mello, Vice President of Manufacturing. "We're implementing best-in-class practices from day one - lean layouts, digital traceability, and automated quality control - to ensure we can deliver reliable motors at volume with the precision and accountability required for government and commercial customers." Unusual Machines is pursuing a dual-sourcing strategy for critical components such as magnets, bearings, and stators to insulate against supply chain disruptions. The company plans to offer both Made-in-USA and globally sourced motor variants to meet different regulatory and customer needs. "This factory is a major milestone in our strategy to rapidly onshore drone component manufacturing," said Allan Evans, CEO of Unusual Machines. "To go fast, we are doing things in parallel and have already placed the equipment orders. We are solving one of the major pain points in the American drone supply chain." About Unusual Machines Unusual Machines manufactures and sells drone components and drones across a diversified brand portfolio, which includes Fat Shark, the leader in FPV (first-person view) ultra-low latency video goggles for drone pilots. The Company also retails small, acrobatic FPV drones and equipment directly to consumers through the curated Rotor Riot e-commerce store. With a changing regulatory environment, Unusual Machines seeks to be a dominant Tier-1 parts supplier to the fast-growing multi-billion-dollar U.S. drone industry.
