How Long Term Evolution Technology Stands To Change The IoT Marketplace

For the past 2-3 years, both the cellular and IoT industries have been abuzz with the imminent arrival of cheap, lightning-fast, widely-accessible LTE. The entrepreneurs, developers, companies,and journalists waited patiently as deadline after deadline passed. But eventually, that patience gave way to frustration and ridicule. And rightly so.

Finally, with the release of Particle's E SoM LTE Module, accessible, scalable LTE for IoT has finally come to fruition. With this new technology, everyone from individual developers to multinational corporations will find real, substantive value from this new form of cellular connectivity. In addition to lower hardware costs and superior coverage, LTE adopters will be certain to future-proof their products from the inevitable sun-setting of 2G and 3G bands.
