NB-IoT is a low-power, wide-area cellular network (LPWAN) technology that transfers data using 200KHz bandwidth. The maximum upload data transfer rate is around 62.5kb per second.
Slower data transfer rates offset lower power consumption and device affordability.
Despite offering excellent stationery range and penetration, the NB-IoT network does not support cell tower handover. If devices move out of frequency range, the signal connection may fail.
NB-IoT Asset Tracking devices are designed for assets that do not need to send frequent updates, 1 - 4 Locations every 24 hours, and require a longer battery life. This technology may be more suitable for your long-term tracking requirements.
If you require more frequent updates, movement alerts, and location history, consider our 4G Battery GPS Trackers. They are more suitable for frequent Locations and movement.
