IoT modems are devices that receive wireless data from remote sensors and forward the collected data to a different communications format.
For instance Bluetooth, TCP, Serial or other popular communications formats.
In a nutshell, an IoT modem will transfer data bytes from one format to another. Unlike IoT gateways, IoT modems don’t require firmware updates as it’s not their job to interpret the data in any way.
Converting data types means all of the interpretation of sensor data is completed at the software or server level rather than the IoT gateway level.
Types of modems
Not all modems are created equal, and when it comes to your IoT needs, having the right modem for the job is paramount. There are a range of IoT 4G modem options available that will ensure you get the data speed you need, when you need it.
