Why NB-IoT

NB-IoT is the most advanced LPWAN technology available today. In comparison to other technologies, it ensures better signal penetration and optimised battery life to guarantee secure data transfer. It addresses all the needs for stability, reliability, security, cost-effectiveness and high scalability. Key functionality provided by NB-IoT are:

Operates on licensed and congestion-free frequency bands. Jio’s 850 MHz LTE band ensures best-in-class indoor penetration.
Provides maximum coverage using the additional 20 dB of link budget, equating to at least two times the coverage of eNodeB.
The cost of the economy reduces the overall total cost of ownership (TCO).
Secure and dedicated communication network taking advantage of mobile network’s inbuilt securities and encryption.
Supports the use of device management protocols like LwM2M for firmware upgrades of devices.

Non-IP Data Delivery

Non-IP Data Delivery (NIDD), an NB-IoT-supported protocol, facilitates scalable connections without using internet protocol. This enhances reliability and aids in meeting SLAs for millions of meter connections on a unified platform.

Other offerings include

Technician mobile application for consumer indexing and installation.

Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) for instant onboarding.

Consumer-facing web portal for integration.
