Why Attend:

This webinar is for IoT leaders, technology managers, and decision-makers in industries where reliable connectivity on global scale is critical. Whether you’re phasing out legacy systems, scaling existing deployments, or planning new IoT projects, this session will help you choose the right technologies.

The IoT connectivity landscape is more diverse than ever. With 2G and 3G networks being phased out, 4G proving its long-term reliability, and new technologies like 5G RedCap and satellite-based IoT (NTN) emerging, enterprises face complex decisions that will shape their operations for years to come.

In this webinar, based on the recently published report, experts from Telenor IoT and Analysys Mason will provide a clear overview of the most relevant cellular IoT technologies—NB-IoT, LTE-M, LTE Cat-1, LTE Cat-4/4+, 5G (NSA/SA), 5G RedCap, and NTN. We will explain what’s available today, what’s coming next, and how to balance short-term reliability with long-term scalability.

By mapping technology capabilities against use cases such as smart metering, asset tracking, industrial automation, connected vehicles, and emergency response, we will help you identify the right connectivity strategy for your business.

What attendees will learn:

  • Stay ahead of legacy shutdowns: Learn how global 2G/3G phase-outs may affect your devices and how to migrate smoothly.
  • Understand the role of 4G: Discover why 4G will remain the backbone of enterprise IoT well into the 2030s.
  • Get clarity on 5G RedCap: See how RedCap bridges the gap between low-power and high-performance IoT—and when it will be truly available.
  • Explore NTN for global reach: Understand how satellite IoT can complement terrestrial networks for remote, maritime, or mission-critical use cases.
  • Match tech to use cases: From wearables to industrial automation, learn which connectivity options fit which applications best.
  • Future-proof your deployments: Gain practical recommendations for planning and deploying your solutions.

This webinar is for IoT leaders, technology managers, and decision-makers in industries where reliable connectivity on global scale is critical. Whether you’re phasing out legacy systems, scaling existing deployments, or planning new IoT projects, this session will help you choose the right technologies for today and tomorrow.
