Westermo Data Communications, Inc., known as Westermo Americas, operates as the Westermo group’s sales subsidiary for the Western Hemisphere, established in 2011 and based in Elgin, Illinois. The Westermo Group began in the early 1970s with its roots in Västermo, Sweden, and today maintains its headquarters in Sweden along with subsidiaries in several countries, including the United States, plus a network of partners worldwide. The company sits in the Industrial Data Communications space, offering more than hardware by providing guidance on system design, cabling, shielding, topology, and installation to optimize performance, with an emphasis on high quality and interoperability that supports long service life and reduces maintenance. Its customer base includes industrial operators requiring robust data links, such as rail applications, industrial vehicles, and outdoor deployments. In late 2022, Westermo expanded its Ibex WLAN line by adding two new access points to support high-performance data communications onboard trains and in related settings.
