As the EU Cyber Resilience Act pushes security and documentation obligations deeper into the IoT supply chain, Quectel says its module cybersecurity programme is already aligned with CRA requirements, supported by long-running third-party work with Finite State. For years, IoT security conversations have focused on endpoints

By Marc Kavinsky, Lead Editor at IoT Business News. As industrial operators weigh when—and how—to move from LTE to 5G, Semtech has introduced the FX86E, a 5G RedCap modem positioned as a pre-certified, plug-and-play option for faster deployments across public and private networks. For many industrial IoT teams, the biggest connectivity bottleneck is not radio

By Marc Kavinsky, Lead Editor at IoT Business News. Edge computing projects often stall on a practical hurdle: finding an application-processor module that can handle local AI workloads while still exposing the industrial and multimedia interfaces needed for real devices. Quectel says its new SH603ZA-AP smart module is built to address that integration gap across

By Marc Kavinsky, Lead Editor at IoT Business News. Global payments hardware has long been constrained by SIM logistics and country-specific connectivity variants. Verifone is now working with Thales to use eSIM and remote subscription management to standardise terminal builds and provision connectivity over the air worldwide. For payment terminals deployed across borders, connectivity is

As connected pet wearables push for smaller designs and longer runtimes, Fibocom has introduced its MQ771-GL LPWA module for smart collars, combining Cat.M and NB-IoT support with power-saving features aimed at extending time between charges. Smart pet collars sit in a tricky corner of the IoT

By Marc Kavinsky, Lead Editor at IoT Business News. As IoT deployments push into basements, utility vaults and geographically fragmented footprints, a single connectivity bearer rarely covers every edge case. 1NCE has now integrated Netmore’s LoRaWAN services into its 1NCE OS platform via a LoRaWAN Network Server plugin, aiming to let customers manage cellular and

By Marc Kavinsky, Lead Editor at IoT Business News. As logistics operators push for item-level visibility without the size and cost of traditional trackers, Berg Insight says smart labels based on cellular, Sigfox or LoRaWAN reached 900,000 shipments in 2025 and could scale sharply by 2030. For years, real-time tracking in logistics has been a

The ability of connected devices to communicate reliably across diverse environments is one of the fundamental pillars of the Internet of Things. As IoT deployments expand across industries—from industrial automation and logistics to energy infrastructure and smart cities—the choice of connectivity technologies becomes a strategic architectural decision. Different devices generate different volumes of data, operate

The rapid expansion of connected devices has created a growing demand for communication technologies capable of supporting large-scale, low-power deployments. Many IoT applications require sensors to operate for years on batteries while transmitting small amounts of data across wide geographic areas. This need has driven the development of Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies,
