NetComm expanded its industrial internet of things (IIoT) portfolio with the launch of the 4G/LTE Category 1 Industrial IoT Router (NTC-220) that will provide medium bandwidth connectivity using universally available LTE networks. The introduction of medium bandwidth IIoT connectivity via the NTC-220 will enable faster deployment of IIoT applications in the market, the company said in a press release.
In addition, the use of widely used LTE Category 1 technology in the NTC-220 will also provide near ubiquitous network coverage which will enable greater IIoT deployment.
The addition of the NTC-220 to the NetComm IIoT portfolio means that NetComm is now offering IioT products covering low-bandwidth NB-IoT applications, over LTE Category-1, right through to higher bandwidth applications that need the extra capability of LTE Category-6.
The NTC-220's Linux based NetComm operating system (OS) also allows product architects and system integrators to create their own applications using NetComm's Software Development Kit (SDK) whilst built-in GPS enables the NTC-220 to track on-the-move assets from anywhere.
