IoT Communication via LTE
M2M (Machine-to-Machine) refers to the communication between machines or devices in the IoT sector. Special M2M or IoT SIM cards enable these connections by accessing multiple mobile networks nationally and internationally (National Roaming). For our gateways, we use a global provider – which offers M2M connectivity in over 184 countries with more than 301 roaming partners, ensuring maximum network coverage for you.
