LTE-M & NB-IoT Roadmap at LPWAN Conference 2018
Sierra Wireless provides a comprehensive global IoT offering including IoT devices, an IoT platform, and IoT connectivity. Cellular LPWA technologies like LTE-M and NB-IoT are available now to provide low-cost, low-power, and wide-area coverage for IoT deployments. Sierra Wireless has been a leader in developing LTE-M and NB-IoT technology, releasing its first LTE-M modules in 2016 and multi-mode modules supporting LTE-M, NB-IoT, and 2G in 2017-2018. These technologies are now seeing global commercial deployments and will continue to evolve in future 5G networks to support massive IoT.
