Vodafone has doubled the number of sites in its Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) network to meet increasing demand for Internet of Things (IoT) services.
Vodafone NB-IoT coverage now touches 98 per cent of the UK.
NB-IoT is a low-power, wide-area network (LPWAN) technology, used for enabling efficient communications between devices that require long battery life and have low data demand. This makes the NB-IoT perfect for numerous applications that to not need to constantly transmit data, such as smart gas and water metres, environmental sensors, or smoke and fire alarms.
