Protecting assets with LTE, NTN & 5G LPWA | IoT Now News & Reports

In this compelling piece, part of the Key Industry Insights Series, Analyst Robin Duke-Woolley of Beecham Research and Kevin Guan of Fibocom, explain how LTE Cat 4/1/1bis/M, NTN and 5G LPWA are working to change the game for protecting goods and supply chains with total, global coverage asset tracking for reduced losses and improved operations across several industries.

Logistics is obsessed with asset tracking but cargo theft, coverage limitations and device durability are huge challenges in this space. However, you’ll discover that the integration of satellite technology with 5G networks is changing all this. For example, you’ll explore how Fibocom’s NTN MA510-GL module links satellites with cellular networks – supporting connectivity for maritime transportation, emergency communication, scientific research in remote areas and more.

Here are some key takeaways from this piece:

• There’s more demand for asset tracking than ever before – With increased shipments, there’s a real need for enhanced operational efficiency and security in logistics chains.
• Satellite and cellular technology combine to meet this challenge – Fibocom shares how linking these two platforms can remove limitations and ensure continuous global coverage.
• Hardware and software innovations can overcome limitations – You’ll learn how to meet global roaming and regional deployment challenges through innovations like Fibocom’s modules.
• The use cases go beyond maritime – The implementation of NTN, iSIMs and the benefits of better tracking span fleet management, cargo tracking, utility payments, smart cities, scientific research and more.
