Which IoT devices are affected?
Any device that relies exclusively on 2G or 3G connectivity may be affected. Examples include:
- Smart meters
- Alarm and security systems
- Industrial sensors
- Asset trackers
- Payment terminals
- Vehicle telematics equipment
- Remote monitoring devices
Check your device inventory for modules supporting GSM, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS or HSPA. These are 2G or 3G technologies. Some devices support several network technologies. A device may therefore currently use 2G or 3G while also supporting 4G, LTE-M or NB-IoT. These devices may be configurable without requiring a complete replacement.
