Mobily and Nokia have connected more than 4,000 sites as part of the narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) network deployment in L 800 band achieving cell radius coverage averaging 20 km per cell.
The completion of the project increases Mobily’s digitalization by offering new NB-IoT services to better serve its enterprise customers.
Mobily has upgraded its LTE base stations to enable NB-IoT in all Nokia footprints — Central, North and East of Saudi Arabia by a software update.
Nokia’s LTE solution will help Mobily enterprise customers to enhance their operational efficiency and deliver improved customer experience through IoT connectivity for enterprises in verticals such as energy, transport and health, said Alaa Malki, CTO at Mobily.
