Real-World Benefits
Cellular-enabled IoT devices are increasingly being used to power Smart Connected Infrastructure. Utilities are modernizing their energy grids, water systems, and natural gas pipelines. Cities are deploying smart lighting to reduce energy costs and installing connected security cameras to improve public safety.
Regardless of the application, reliable network connectivity is critical for today’s cities. Procuring dependable cellular-enabled IoT products will pave the way to successful deployments.
IoT Network Certified for Smart Connected Infrastructure™
IoT Network Certified for Smart Connected Infrastructure provides confidence that devices will perform as expected in critical infrastructure applications. In addition to the standard requirements to achieve IoT Network Certified recognition, additional testing is conducted which is tailored to the unique and demanding needs of this environment.
Utilities
- Devices are connected to 4G/5G network infrastructure and, using CTIA’s Utility IoT Device Certification Test Plan, tested for their ability to reliably connect to wireless networks in critical infrastructure applications.
- Devices are further evaluated for their compliance to the latest cybersecurity standards from NIST and ETSI using CTIA’s IoT Cybersecurity Certification Test Plan.
Certification takes the guesswork out of purchasing cellular-enabled IoT products. When soliciting vendor quotes, incorporate the IoT Network Certified for Smart Connected Infrastructure certification into your Request for Proposal (RFP) requirements.
