In the realm of IoT, the US-based Intel offers a wide range of specialized chipsets and solutions designed to power and connect the Internet of Things devices and applications.
Intel's IoT chipsets are designed for devices that typically use traditional SIM card formats (2FF, 3FF, 4FF or integrate embedded SIM (eSIM) solutions.
Intel's IoT chipsets offer a diverse spectrum of connectivity options, including:
Wi-Fi. Intel's Wi-Fi modules are optimized explicitly for IoT devices, applicable to local networks and the broader internet.
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). Intel's BLE chipsets are lauded for their low-power attributes witjin short-range, energy-efficient wireless communication suited for battery-powered IoT devices.
LoRaWAN. This technology is applied to smart agriculture, asset tracking, and environmental monitoring applications.
NB-IoT and LTE-M. Intel extends to cellular standards like Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) and LTE-M, with the goal of reliable and energy-saving connectivity within the IoT deployments.
Intel's IoT chipsets can be used with the following verticals and use cases:
Smart Home. Integrates into an array of smart home devices, spanning thermostats, smart plugs, and security systems.
Industrial IoT (IIoT). Contributes to real-time equipment monitoring, asset management, and operational optimization.
Agriculture. Becomes a part of smart agriculture solutions, supporting soil monitoring, precision farming, and livestock tracking.
Healthcare. Supports remote patient monitoring and the connectivity of medical devices.
