Podcast episode summary

How can companies scale IoT projects across borders while keeping connectivity secure, reliable and cost-efficient? In this episode, Salvator Kenndler from Deutsche Telekom IoT explains the key challenges and solutions for global IoT connectivity.

The biggest hurdles are technology choices, international regulations and hidden costs in SIM management. A wrong decision on NB-IoT, LTE-M or 5G can delay rollouts for months, while unused SIMs and roaming restrictions drive up costs. Regulatory differences and incomplete standards add further complexity when scaling across Europe or worldwide.

Deutsche Telekom IoT addresses these issues with a comprehensive portfolio: from NB-IoT and LTE-M to 5G standalone and satellite fallback for remote or critical use cases. With more than 500 global roaming agreements, industrial-grade SIM, eSIM and iSIM technologies, and a proven Connectivity Management Platform (CMP), Telekom ensures secure and scalable deployments. Hardware certification, strong APIs for ERP and logistics integration, and RTK-based precise positioning services further simplify complex IoT projects.

The message is clear: connectivity is a small but crucial part of every IoT solution. Choosing the right technology early and relying on expert consultation prevents costly mistakes and accelerates time-to-market.

👉 Tune in to discover how Deutsche Telekom IoT enables global IoT rollouts, reduces risk and helps companies unlock the full potential of connected devices worldwide.
