With NB-IOT it is possible to connect installations, equipment and sensors remotely via NB-IOT simcards. The network has been specially developed for IOT applications and is based on the reliable and secure 4G networks of the providers. NB-IOT uses a specific frequency that is strong enough to pass through thick walls and can even be used underground. As a result, it offers cover in the most challenging situations.
NB-IOT applications
It is suitable for applications where the average data consumption is between 500KB and 5MB, for example the remote reading of water levels by means of innovative sensors, unlocking valuable data with sensors placed in homes and collecting measurement data from inverters linked to solar systems.
Delivery of NB-IOT simcards
Thingsdata supplies secure NB-IOT simcards that can be used in almost 20 European countries (see roaming list below). The NB-IOT simcards are managed in a GDSP sim management system. Within the GDSP sim management system you get an admin account with insight into all simcards (status and data usage).
These are all countries in the world where NB-IOT is already available through the Vodafone IOT portfolio.
