The new family of LTE goes thedistance for IoT.

Just right for IoTOur LTE IoT solutions, including both Category 1 and M1, scale down LTE to more e�ciently support widespread IoT adoption.

Investment dollars go furtherBy evolving the device ecosystem to include LTE Cat-M1, Verizon o�ers the scale, coverage and security of LTE but at an a�ordable cost for IoT needs.

• Channel pricing relative to 2G

• A simple transition from CDMA

• Minimized power consumption

#1 for IoTOur 4G LTE network is the first to fully support Category M1 technology and 4G LTE devices, and it includes services specifically for IoT.

Broader, moreconsistent coverageLocations previously considered out of reach, suchas basements, can now receive full LTE access.

• Improved nationwide coverage

• Deeper reach through walls, floors and in-ground

With the launch of LTE Category M1, Verizon lowers the barrier of entry to the Internet of Things (IoT) world, giving you more LTE options to reach your IoT goals.

Better matters.

LTE Category 1 (Cat-1)• Moderate data rates

• Cost e�ective

• High bandwidth

• Full support for Voice over LTE (VoLTE)

LTE Category M1 (Cat-M1)• Slower data rates

• Cost e�ective

• Narrow bandwidth

• Improved coverage

• Improved battery life

Our LTE network is backed by a vibrant ecosystem and a streamlined certification process to get new IoT devices deployed quickly.

The cost savings for building an LTE Cat-1 device versus a Cat-4 or higher LTE device.

Longer battery lifeThanks to better power optimization, LTE Cat-M1 devices can check in less frequently and go into power-saving mode, allowing them to be left unattended for up to a decade.
