IoT Nets Snag Wide-Area Player
EE Times – September 9, 2015 – The horse race to build a low-power, wide-area network for the Internet of Things just got a new contender. On-Ramp Wireless (San Diego) changed its name to Ingenu Networks and announced it is raising funds to roll out a public IoT network in the U.S. by the end of 2017. Read More>>


Fierce Wireless – September 9, 2015 – Partnerships with vendors are key to making smart city initiatives a reality because they allow cities to make investments in infrastructure without taking unnecessary risk — such as investing in platforms that may become outdated.

We saw that with the deeper dive into messaging protocols; things will be no different with this piece today. Probably worse, actually – in the end, while we’ll cover a lot of issues, it’s somehow unsatisfying.
Electric Energy T&D Magazine – July/August 2015 – As utilities increase their reliance on ubiquitous data to monitor and operate complex smart grids, advanced connectivity for the Internet of Things (IoT) is an important facet of the overall system plan.

And the disparity between what IoT needs and what cellular delivers grows wider and wider as cellular network operators move from 2G and 3G networks to 4G LTE and beyond, he said. That excess, he added, comes at a cost.
