A crucial part to implement IoT systems and infrastructures is the IoT network. The characteristics of the IoT network make a decisive contribution to enable devices with low power consumption, devices with low costs and devices which can be integrated via wide area radio into the network. To enable this, Telekom and its subsidiaries such as Deutsche Telekom, T-Mobile Poland, T-Mobile Austria, T-Mobile US, etc., have implemented an NB-IoT and LTE-M network in many countries world wide.

If interested in an explanation of how NB-IoT and LTE-M help implement IoT use-cases in the industry, you can find several articles in our IoT Blog at https://iot.telekom.com/en/blog .
