5G IoT is a communications technology for devices that exists on mobile networks
Currently, around 6.5 billion "things" are connected to the internet, but that's less than 1% of what has the potential to be connected. With 5G IoT, this is rapidly changing. This revolutionary communications technology is designed to enable IoT devices to connect with each other through cellular networks and the cloud.
A world class network designed for devices built by Mobile Network Operators
Signals extend 20% beyond normal mobile phone coverage, and deep underground buildings
Whilst Wi-Fi has been designed mostly for steaming, 5G IoT is designed for low data transfers.
Tens of millions of IoT devices from smart lights, to smart meters connect to the internet on 5G IoT
Providing a worldwide solution
Gain valuable insights from GSMA regarding the mobile industry's implementation of 5G IoT technologies (NB-IoT and LTE-M) as a comprehensive coverage solution sometimes known as the Global Mobile-IoT Network (GMN). Our smartlocks are compatible with 40 MNO networks worldwide thanks to new roaming agreements.
