NB-IoT is well suited to IoT applications such as metering and sensor monitoring and flexibly scales to support millions of connections per cell site. It also reduces module costs by 90 percent and provides seven times better coverage. Combined with power-saving improvements, it delivers more than 10-year device battery life while maintaining downlink reachability.

Ericsson Networks Software 17A for Massive IoT will become commercially available in Q4 2016.
