By 2025, the number of connected devices will grow to more than 75 billion. One reason for this IoT boom is new technologies and transmission options: Low Power Wide Area Networks, in particular the mobile radio standard Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT), are enabling the implementation of completely new IoT use cases.
That is because NB-IoT offers numerous advantages, first and foremost low costs, high scalability and good building penetration, making the standard the ideal technology for a wide range of applications – from smart metering to smart city and smart building.

A specialist in the development and production of innovative gate systems was looking for a solution for transparent condition monitoring, enabling proactive maintenance and anomaly detection with the goal of significantly reducing maintenance efforts and offering customers faster and more efficient customer service.
In collaboration with Vodafone, a Narrowband IoT solution was developed based on Modbus Cloud Connect and CENTERSIGHT scale. Thanks to Narrowband IoT’s strong building penetration, even gates in remote locations or underground areas can be seamlessly connected. With CENTERSIGHT scale, all relevant data can be transparently visualized and analyzed in a central dashboard, enabling early fault detection. Additionally, the manufacturer’s end customers can access inspection certificates, alarms, and error messages directly through the portal. The result? Efficient, proactive maintenance of the gates and significantly improved customer service.
Networking of electricity, water or gas meters is an application area that is virtually predestined for the use of Narrowband IoT. To make a meter IoT-capable, you do not need large amounts of data. In addition, NB-IoT‘s strong coverage is perfectly designed to transmit signals from smart meters, which are typically located in basements.
By equipping parking spaces with ground sensors that detect the magnetic field of a vehicle, it is possible to determine at any time whether and where a parking space is currently free. This information can then be used via app or on digital displays in public spaces to guide traffic.
With the help of Smart Building, doors, lifts, blinds, heating, or lighting, for example, can be controlled centrally – depending on how many people are on site at any given time. The goal: more efficient building and energy management as well as more safety and comfort for the people on site.
