WHAT IS
AN
IOT NETWORK?
- A dedicated, reliable and secure network to connect "Things"
- Network capacity is millions of messages per hour
- Resistant to electronic interference
- GSM / 3G / 4G jammers have no effect
- Timeout and extremely low power messages
- Duration of months / years with AA batteries
- Low cost chipsets = low cost devices
- One-way messages in both directions
- Limited to very small messages
Traditional cellular networks (4G and LTE) are expensive, consume too much power, and are too intense for the needs of the billions of new, low-power devices expected to come online in the coming years.
