Multi-RAT IoT: Enabling The Network-Agnostic Enterprise

Posted on by

A lot of enterprise IoT is focused on resilient, reliable cellular connectivity. However, the reality is that when it really comes down to it, enterprises don’t really care about the network technology or the IoT connectivity operator chosen. Most enterprises are only really concerned with getting secure, reliable, high-performing connectivity at an affordable price all the way from device to cloud so they can fulfill their SLAs and meet their performance metrics.

These days, smart IoT devices can be connected in a huge number of ways. These include cellular communications, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, near field communication (NFC), global provisioning system (GPS), LoRaWAN, ZigBee and satellite, along with emerging wireless protocols such as NB-IoT, LTE-M, and Thread.

For many businesses, combining connectivity modes offers a more resilient, high-performing, and efficient alternative to a single solution. This mix-and-match approach allows enterprises to meet the specific connectivity needs of their IoT devices and applications, ensuring seamless device-to-cloud data flows. Consequently, there is a growing demand for IoT devices that support multiple radio access types (RAT).
