How Epsilon Utilizes NB-IoT Trackers to Enhance Asset Tracking

When Epsilon refers to customers, it means classic German medium-sized companies, which typically consists of companies with around 5,000-6,000 employees. In this episode, we are joined by two IoT experts from Epsilon who give us practical insights into their connectivity use cases – Volker Mahler and Florian Sonntag. In detail, a specific project is examined that revolves around asset tracking, specifically tracking of containers. Epsilon’s focus in this regard is not on 2G or similar technologies, but on pure Narrowband IoT tracking. If you want to keep track of a container – and do so worldwide with coverage of different countries – you are faced with many challenges: What hardware to choose? What are the suitable radio systems? How to ensure the power supply? Epsilon draws on a large network to provide its customers with comprehensive advice on these topics. All of this information about what the connectivity specialist does, how their solutions work and are structured in detail, what current projects they have, and how they envision the future of IoT can be found in this podcast episode.
