IoT Solutions
BT delivers IoT solutions to drive your business’ growth.
Best-in-class IoT connectivity
Every IoT project needs rock-solid connectivity. That's why many of the UK's biggest businesses work with BT. We've got UK's fastest networks, and thousands of data security experts keeping them safe.
Business intelligence starts with IoT. Smarter decisions start with BT.
Managed IoT connectivity
Managed Dual Path offers exceptional operational uptime from fixed and mobile paths that switch between each other if there’s ever a connection failure. Plus, flexible IoT connectivity options that can convert signalling to all-IP where needed. We also offer Managed Single Path, a cost-effective alternative including either a SIM or broadband connection through a managed router.
SIM-only
BT IoT is powered by EE, the UK’s best network. That means you get great operational uptime across sites. You can also choose between a secure public or private connection, with the option to use your own equipment. Plus access to a SIM Management Portal for 24/7 monitoring and ticketing.
Low power wide area network (LPWAN)
Remotely sited, portable, and battery-powered devices need a different solution. LPWANs deliver sustainable IoT infrastructure at scale. NarrowBand-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) is a cellular standards-based LPWAN developed to enable IoT devices and services. NB-IoT significantly reduces the power consumption of user devices, system capacity, and spectrum efficiency, compared to a standard 4G device.
24/7 monitoring and ticketing with BT Control Centre
BT Control Centre brings together the UK’s largest mobile network, and a secure SIM, into a self-service management portal providing full lifecycle management, with flexible price plans delivering commercial returns tailored to your needs.
It’s underpinned by BT security expertise, and UK-based service support, delivering end-to-end solution assurance.
5G: accelerating IoT ambitions
Every organisation has different IoT requirements. But all have growing demands for data - and need it faster than ever before.
Our unbeatable 5G EE network can handle even the hungriest data consumers. With low latency and high bandwidth, 5G is perfect for applications such as video surveillance, augmented reality, and real-time environmental monitoring.
Our 5G network is now available to more businesses than ever before, covering more than half of the UK - and growing every day.
And when you want the best of the best, with the highest-possible mobile bandwidth and no data traffic but your own, we're ready to supply your private 5G network.
