Cellular and Industrial IoT: Simple, Scalable and Secure Connectivity

When implementing an IIoT project, the choice of connectivity affects how the solution performs, effective range, reliability, device battery usage, how much different types of data can be transferred, and how fast it can be transferred. While there are many connectivity options available, cellular connectivity is gaining popularity as a simple, scalable and secure way to connect Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices. Manufacturers around the world are looking to transform their businesses with IIoT applications that can increase productivity, reduce equipment downtime and increase the efficiency of factory operations and processes.

Cellular IoT networks and devices are getting cheaper and more ubiquitous, attracting more and more interest. Some organizations have deployed cellular IoT networks to solve a range of business problems and enable smart manufacturing. For many of these projects, organizations establish connections to obtain data from various devices.

Cellular connectivity in industrial IoT applications

Connecting connected devices with cellular connectivity has long been the goal of industrial engineers building autonomous manufacturing equipment and factory automation systems. Mobile technology provides companies with the ability to seamlessly increase speed and expand the data processing capabilities of their systems. Cellular connectivity enables companies to transmit and process large amounts of information in a short period of time without having to send all the data through a centralized IT infrastructure. This provides organizations with the opportunity to implement machine health monitoring strategies with the help of wireless IIoT sensors without having to build out their infrastructure.
