IoTP Insight: Most resellers and networking consultants have deep roots in Ethernet and Wi-Fi networking, but don't know as much as they should about cellular data networks. Why do they need to study? According to everythingRF.com, LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) networks over LTE (cellular data) will connect 75% of Smart Cities by 2026. In other words, in five years, the devices that run Smart Cities will bypass Wi-Fi and depend on LTE. That includes proprietary LPWA connectivity as LoRa (Long Range, Low Power).
