Battery efficient
NB-IoT will provide the most energy efficient solution for applications that are battery or solar powered.
Long product life cycles
NB-IoT helps support long application life cycles for sensor applications where data traffic is low and transferred intermittently, uses batteries/with no mains power.
Strong signal penetration
The deepest reach of any LPWA network from basements, underground car parks, water meters or sensors deployed below street level.
Mass deployments
NB-IoT was designed to support a massive number of connections per cell.
NB-IoT
NarrowBand-IoT (NB-IoT) was designed to support long-battery life requirements in stationary, low-cost sensor devices located in underground or indoor environments where signal penetration is a challenge.

Why choose NB-IoT ahead of LTE-M or LTE Cat-1 BIS?
Does NB-IoT have any down-sides?
While some countries have strong NB-IoT coverage, it is not always nationwide in others. Globally there are only around 140 NB-IoT networks and roaming agreements are limited.
Reviewing our technology comparison and coverage checker is essential.
