While 5G continues to dominate the discussion around the future of networking technologies envisioning the new era of IoT, LoRaWAN has already seen massive adoption across different verticals. How would these technologies affect the IoT ecosystem?<\/p>\n
Looking back a few years, 5G was hailed as the ultimate enabler for the realization of IoT opportunities. As it enhanced existing LTE networks with high data speeds, low latency, and ubiquitous coverage, it seemed like the perfect match for even the most sophisticated connected ecosystems. However, as of 2020, 5G still has a long way to go before entering the mainstream, mainly because of lacking infrastructure and prohibitive costs.<\/p>\n
While the leading telcos continue to beat the drum for the 5th generation mobile network, some businesses have grown impatient for its widespread adoption. Looking for an alternative, many are turning to LoRaWAN. Is that a clever choice?<\/p>\n
