The Key Players of the Global Private Narrowband IoT Market are,



Key Developments  



  • In April 2019 AT&T launched a narrowband (NB-IoT) network across the US in addition to its low-power wide-area networks (LPWANS) in order to remain competitive in the private narrowband IoT market. This further helps the company to increase its customer base.



  • In May 2019 Verizon has launched its nationwide NB-IoT network, which the carrier claims, covers 92% of the total US population. The network is capable of managing both IP and non-IP traffics. Non-IP traffic management can be used for devices and solutions that are not traditionally connected to mobile networks, such as alarm panels, environmental sensors, industrial appliances, factory equipment, and parking meters. Verizon maintains that the network can also be used in smart city applications.



  • In Feb 2019 China Mobile Limited partnered with Singtel, a Singapore-based telecommunication company, to expand the IoT market to the Asia-Pacific region. China Mobile Limited also partnered to provide its narrowband-IoT (NB-IoT) products and services in Singapore using Singtel’s network.



  • In November 2017 Gemalto and Huawei—via its semiconductor arm, HiSilicon, announced their partnership to develop NB-IoT modules with a focus on security and low power consumption. These modules can be used in a range of IoT devices to reduce both size and production costs. The initiative will combine expertise from both companies in an effort to appeal to manufacturers to meet the growing demand for NB-IoT enabled devices.
