The 3G Network Sunset – What This Means for You and Your Customers
As the 3G sunset is fast approaching, 2G/3G network reliant devices will become unusable. This has a wide effect across the country, AT&T estimates 50% of their IoT solutions are currently on 2G or 3G networks. The reason for this shutdown of the 3G network is to make room for newer, faster, cutting-edge 5G technology.
With 3G sunsetting this month, businesses and individuals alike are moving to 4G/LTE and 5G compatible devices. PERS providers are creating plans to migrate to devices that work on the faster networks for their vulnerable portion of the population. These customers tend to be less technology savvy and may not be aware of this shift or what it means. Providing your customers with easy, cost-effective migration solutions could include an upgrade to the next generation mobile PERS. Our Theora Connect™ is a great example of this next-generation technology. Not only is it pre-certified 4G LTE/5G compatible, Theora Connect brings exciting new functionality to mPERS users with features that include:
- Remote monitoring
- Geofencing
- Hands-free two-way voice communications
- A sleek design that people will wear.
Made to be user-friendly, Theora Connect is easy-to-use, highly scalable for long-term use, and is an incredible value. We believe the 3G sunset is a great opportunity to deliver better technology for today and tomorrow.
