Verizon Business

Verizon Business has announced a global wireless IoT (Internet of Things) platform that will let businesses deploy and manage IoT devices across international borders. This solution leverages both native eSIM (embedded-SIM) technology and roaming capabilities of mobile network operator (MNO) partners.

Telenor and Verizon have announced collaboration for international IoT (internet of things). The partnership aims to deliver global IoT services to enterprises, unlocking new possibilities and simplifying connectivity on a global scale.

There is an increasingly important link between 5G, IoT and edge compute, with each having implications for the success of the other, says Guy Matthews, editor of NetReporter. So believes Jeremiah Caron, global head of research & analysis with the Technology Group of independent analyst firm GlobalData.

Enterprises can now benefit from global Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity from Verizon Business for mobile assets in 170 countries worldwide. This includes permanent roaming options in North America and Western Europe all on a single SIM.

Verizon Business and Amazon Web Services (AWS) will be expanding their 5G collaboration to deliver private mobile edge computing (MEC) to enterprise customers in the U.S who want a completely dedicated edge compute infrastructure on-premise that enables ultra-low latency, higher levels of security and deeper customisation.

Verizon Business is working with Associated British Ports (ABP) to deploy a private 5G network at the UK Port of Southampton. Delivered in partnership with Nokia, Verizon’s private 5G platform will provide one of the United Kingdom’s (UK’s) busiest ports with a secure, low-latency private network connection.
