Important information about 4G network coverage:

1NCE provides networks coverage across 173 countries worldwide. 4G and all other IoT radio technologies are supported. The updated coverage map provides you with details on which mobile radio standard is available in which region. 1NCE is the first provider of connectivity and software for loT at a global loT Lifetime Flat. 

4G / LTE Coverage Map

1NCE is progressively expanding its network coverage offering. Various mobile radio standards are available in over 173 countries, including 2G/ 3G/ 4G as well as LTE-M and NB-loT. The country coverage map shows you whether the IoT 4G radio technology is also available in your location.

Shutdowns

2G/3G Network Discontinuations

From time to time, mobile network operators (MNOs) decide to switch off certain radio standards such as 2G, 3G in order to use the released frequencies for newer technologies. The discontinuation of certain mobile technologies is also referred to as shutdown, phase out or sunset. As an MVNO, 1NCE relies on the local services of its roaming partners. Therefore, 1NCE coverage is affected by local network shutdowns and locally available radio access technologies. See the 1NCE Developer Hub for documentation of all upcoming network shutdowns within our roaming partner network.

Tier-1-IoT-Carrier

2G IoT optimized network

The 1NCE network combines the benefits of a MVNO with the advantages of a Tier-1-IoT-Carrier. Based on a strong partnership with Deutsche Telekom, we can offer direct access to Radio Access Networks of Tier-1-operators and guarantee long-term stability and security for our customers. Furthermore, the cooperation with Amazon Web Services facilitates us to develop a unique IoT software, so that customers can integrate cellular IoT connectivity into their solutions faster with plug & play functionalities.

What is the range of a 4G network?

Depending on the location, cell tower density, and frequency bands, the IoT 4G network's range might differ. I can be a few km in cities where tower placement is dense, and it can reach tens of km in rural areas with fewer towers. The effective range of a 4G cell tower is considered to be a few hundred meters to about ten kilometers. However, it can be shortened by signal penetration through structures. 

What does 4G connectivity mean?

4G as a type of connectivity offers improved performance and quicker data rates than the 3G network. For gadgets like smartphones, it provides high-speed internet access, better web browsing, online gaming, and video streaming. In addition, 4G IoT networks make use of technologies such as LTE (Long-Term Evolution) to enhance the results. 

What is 4G IoT?

4G IoT is about connectivity and tracking of IoT) devices via 4G networks. The 4G technologies like LTE-M and NB-IoT are specifically used within IoT applications. Asset monitoring, infrastructure management, industrial automation, and other use cases are usually supported by 4G IoT.  

What is the difference between 4G and NB-IoT?

4G refers to the fourth generation of cellular technology, which is intended for high-speed voice and data communication in general. The Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technology that functions within the 4G LTE framework is called NB-IoT (Narrowband-IoT). NB-IoT is meant for low-bandwidth applications, while 4G delivers high bandwidth.  In addition, while NB-IoT is designed to use very little power, devices can run for years on a single battery. It offers improved coverage, especially in difficult-to-reach places such deep within buildings or underground. The technology is intended for modest data rates, but 4G offers high data rates.  Compared to conventional 4G modules, NB-IoT modules are typically less complex and more affordable.
