How Carrier Choice Impacts IoT Performance
When teams design an IoT deployment, they often spend months refining hardware, firmware, and cloud architecture—only to treat cellular connectivity as a commodity. “Any carrier with coverage will do,” the thinking goes. In reality, carrier choice is one of the most important—and least understood—determinants of real-world IoT performance. From signal reliability and latency to battery […]
The Ultimate Guide to Global IoT Connectivity
Global IoT connectivity is the difference between a clever prototype and a product that actually works everywhere your customers do. A tracker that loses signal at a border, a smart meter that can’t roam, or a point-of-sale device that fails when a carrier sunsets a legacy network turns into churn, support tickets, and costly truck […]
Reducing Roaming Costs with Multi-Network SIMs
As IoT deployments scale across borders, roaming costs quickly become one of the largest—and most unpredictable—operational expenses. What may begin as a manageable connectivity line item during a pilot can spiral into a major cost center once devices are deployed internationally, move across regions, or rely on fallback networks. For enterprises operating global IoT solutions, […]
2026 IoT Connectivity Trends
The Internet of Things (IoT) is no longer just an emerging technology; it’s a foundational pillar of digital transformation across industries. From smart cities and connected factories to healthcare wearables and consumer devices, IoT deployments are expanding rapidly. According to recent forecasts, the number of connected IoT devices is expected to grow to 21.1 billion […]
How to Reduce IoT Deployment Time by up to 50%
IoT deployments are notorious for taking longer than expected. What starts as a promising pilot can quickly turn into months—or even years—of integration work, field delays, and operational bottlenecks. Hardware lead times, connectivity issues, security concerns, and fragmented tooling all contribute to slow rollouts. Yet organizations that approach IoT deployment strategically can reduce time-to-deployment by […]
How to Validate IoT Connectivity Requirements
The success of any Internet of Things (IoT) solution depends heavily on one foundational element: connectivity. Whether you’re deploying smart meters, industrial sensors, asset trackers, or consumer devices, choosing and validating the right connectivity is critical. Poor connectivity decisions can lead to data loss, excessive costs, security vulnerabilities, and ultimately failed projects. Validating IoT connectivity […]
Multi-carrier SIMs for IoT: everything you need to know
IoT devices are becoming increasingly indispensable. But how do you ensure that these devices stay connected, regardless of their location? For companies operating globally, multi-carrier SIM cards offer the solution. These smart SIM cards allow devices to seamlessly switch between networks, preventing downtime and ensuring constant connectivity. Here’s what you need to know about this […]
Why multi-network SIMs are essential for the energy transition and smart infrastructure
The world faces a dual challenge: accelerating the energy transition while modernising ageing infrastructure. Solar farms, smart grids, water management systems and construction sites increasingly rely on real-time data and digital control. But without stable, flexible connectivity, many of these systems come to a standstill, especially in remote or temporary locations. Multi-network SIM cards offer […]
4 IoT use cases for VoLTE
Voice over Long-Term Evolution, or VoLTE for short, refers to using 4G/ 5G LTE networks to make calls. In the past 2G and 3G generations, voice communications were sent individually via packet-switched networks while data traveled over different networks. Often, these different paths led to inefficiencies. In contrast, VoLTE combines these two channels to allow […]
2G & 3G sunset: What it means for IoT
Many companies worldwide use Internet of Things (IoT) devices that rely on the aging 2G and 3G cellular networks for connectivity. These networks provide IoT manufacturers with a cost-effective means to maintain global connections across a diverse range of environments. However, as this technology reaches its twilight years, the emergence of superior alternatives and the […]
