Companies with cellular-based IoT devices are faced with a critical technology transition as major networks sunset their 2G, 3G and 4G networks in favor of 5G technologies. This transition will be especially challenging for end-to-end IoT solutions because the carrier technology is typically interlinked with several components including devices, device applications, SIMs, gateways, business applications and cloud platforms.

This means failing to plan and implement a transition could result in major business disruption and great pain for customers when critical IoT platforms suddenly go dark.
