How This Fits Into IoT
If you’re about to begin an IoT device development program, and you plan to use cellular, you’re absolutely going to consider CAT M1 and NB-IoT technologies. The all-important question is, “What do you need to know to choose the right technology for your use case?”
This workshop will focus on equipping you with the essential information you need to know about CAT M1 and NB-IoT, and how you can apply this knowledge in successfully designing your cellular connected device.
What Attendees Do
The first half of the workshop will focus on education – defining, comparing, and contrasting CAT M1 and NB-IoT Technologies and the types of applications that best fit each one. In the second half of the workshop, attendees will apply this new knowledge as they work with a development kit to send data over a CAT M1 network.
Learning Objectives
Attendees will learn how carriers are structuring and deploying these networks and, as a result, how they as customers must design and deploy their devices.
Learn the specifications of each technology and their comparative strengths:
- Power consumption
- Coverage
- Range
- Throughput
Understand the implications for device design, including which features of these technologies are most relevant to my use case?
