What is NB-IoT?

The name NB-IoT simply means narrow-band IoT. It is a newly developed standard to let IoT devices and sensors to operate via carrier networks. The uniqueness of NB-IoT standard is that it just needs just 200kHz of bandwidth for its operations. Hence it supports a large number of endpoint devices with a very lower power requirement which allows it to be used by small sized, less complicated IoT gadgets.

Who is going to need NB-IoT?

If you have got a potential IoT use case which involves coverage of huge areas, where it might be totally impossible or you know impractical to implement your own radio coverage, Narrow band IoT is a potential life saver for you.

Narrow Band IoT is more power efficient and can deliver great range and throughput at a very low price.

  • Strong signal strength over large areas, even when the NB-IoT devices are underground or deep within the buildings
  • Unbelievable power efficiency, so that the NB-IoT devices can function on the batteries for more than 10 years without a recharge
  • Unbelievable power efficiency, so that the NB-IoT devices can function on the batteries for more than 10 years without a recharge
  • Low cost NB-IoT hardware, which enables the data collecting devices to be developed for a very low manufacturing cost.
  • Low bandwidth, with most use cases requiring just a few bytes of data to be transmitted by a single device per day.
