Revolutionizing Global IoT Connectivity with OQ Technology and o2 Telefónica

check out this awesome news! OQ Technology and o2 Telefónica have teamed up to bring global 5G IoT connectivity to the next level. It’s all about expanding reach, boosting connectivity, and cutting-edge infrastructure. OQ Technology’s NB-IoT services are now reaching over 130 countries through o2 Telefónica, and they’re aiming to connect a whopping seven digits worth of SIMs to the OQ network by 2030. That’s some serious scale deployment potential right there! Leveraging OQ’s 3GPP LEO constellation, O2 Telefónica is enabling 5G IoT connectivity for NB-IoT standards-compliant devices. How cool is that?

The signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between OQ Technology and o2 Telefónica marks the beginning of a new era of global IoT Satellite connectivity. Starting in Q2 2024, o2 Telefónica will roll out global 5G roaming, allowing Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) solutions deployment worldwide. This means businesses can now enjoy reliable IoT services, even in areas that were previously inaccessible. It’s like bringing the power of IoT to every corner of the globe!

But wait, there’s more! OQ Technology’s satellite network seamlessly integrates with Telefónica IPX Cloud and Kite, o2 Telefónica’s award-winning IoT connectivity management platform. This offers business customers real-time SIM card monitoring and control on a global scale. It’s all about making IoT connectivity easy and accessible for businesses everywhere.

The leadership at OQ Technology and o2 Telefónica are thrilled about this partnership. Omar Qaise, Founder & CEO of OQ Technology, is excited about enabling o2 Telefónica users to access 5G IoT roaming services globally. And Nikolaos Kalivianakis, Director of Business Solutions at o2 Telefónica, sees the collaboration as a way to enhance efficiency and productivity through OQ Technology’s global coverage and innovative satellite-based IoT connectivity. It’s great to see leaders in the industry coming together to make big things happen!

This collaboration opens up new business opportunities, especially in areas where terrestrial networks face limitations. Think about connecting stationary IoT devices like agriculture sensors in remote areas or enabling IoT applications across the world’s oceans. It’s all about unlocking the potential of IoT in places where it was once thought impossible.

And here’s the cherry on top: In early 2024, Telefónica’s Kite platform will introduce “IoT Data Ready,” making NB-IoT data processing simpler and acting as a bridge to traditional IT systems. This is a game-changer for businesses looking to streamline their IoT data processing and integration.
