T Mobile, Deutsche Telekom roll out T-IoT solution for businesses

T-Mobile US and German telecommunications company Deutsche Telekom have unveiled a new Internet of Things (IoT) solution dubbed T-IoT to deploy and manage global IoT connections with ease.

Available across 188 destinations, on 383 networks globally, the T-IoT network will enable businesses to have one global team and one global solution for global IoT connectivity, platform management and support.

The internet solution will help enterprises view and manage global IoT connections across various platforms, including T-Mobile Control Center and Deutsche Telekom M2M Service Portal.

T-IoT is also claimed to streamline procurement processes through simplified contract and billing, reliable global service level arrangements, and customer support.

T Mobile said the global network connectivity will also serve the lifetime connectivity needs of the devices.
