IoT Connectivity – vertical and horizontal communications

What is vertical communications?

Vertical communication (networking) describes the connection of Things – e.g. sensors and machines – and users/users within a production or a location. Therefore, the local network (Ethernet) is suitable for vertical communication (networking) in the sense of Industrie 4.0. For end customers, e.g. manufacturing companies, this is a good solution.

What is horizontal communications?

Horizontal communications (networking) means site-independent data communication – machine to machine – throughout the entire value chain. Things and end users will be located at different sites and some end users may even be working for different companies. In horizontal networking mobile radio is the simplest and most versatile technology to transmit data from a machine to its manufacturer. With mobile radio a lot of complexity is taken out of the equation: you can connect without having to worry about local IT infrastructure and Internet connections.

IoT Connectivity = horizontal + vertical communication (networking)

IoT Connectivity – The advantages of mobile radio

Mobile radio is superior to other IoT connectivity solutions in many ways. And these advantages will grow even stronger in the future.

Compared to radio technologies like LoRA and Sigfox mobile radio wins because it offers global coverage. Compared to gateways with Ethernet interface – and that goes for WLAN too – mobile radio secures independence from local infrastructure. And not least, it secures independence from the internal network usage guidelines laid out by the company where your sensors or devices are located.

On top of this, with the emergence of Narrowband IoT new technologies based on mobile radio are likely to create many new business opportunities in the future.

Cloud-System • Um Daten von einer Maschine an den Hersteller zu übermitteln, eignet sich am besten der Mobilfunk, da der Endkunde vor Ort weder externe Zugriffe über seine IT-Infrastruktur konfigurieren muss, noch eines Internets bedarf.

IoT Connectivity – the advantages of an integrated eSIM card

Best Network
Always connected to the best network: there are 400 mobile radio providers globally with unsteered roaming functionality in more than 120 countries
Billing
Data volume is visible via the device cloud, and billing can be done over the device cloud as well
Simple contract transfer
The eSIM card is linked to the IoT gateway and not to a specific person, making handovers easy
Regional conditions
We have taken into account that all devices with a radio interface are subject to regional regulations

Specific agreements secure very precise billing of the transmitted data packages. We pre-process data and reduce it to a minimum, to avoid unnecessary data transfer. In comparison, ordinary mobile phones produce much larger amounts of data. We offer a global flat rate: we call it 1World, 1SIM, 1Price.
