Dutch LoRaWan operator Everynet is offering coast-to-coast access to low power wide area network (LPWAN) technology in the USA.

Its coverage is now available in nearly 370 cities, which includes more than 130 key logistics points.

Everynet is delivering a nationwide, 64-channel, carrier-grade network in the USA. Leveraging the full spectrum allocated by the FCC, Everynet’s network offers dense coverage in urban areas, while its long-range connectivity is delivering coverage across key logistics points.

Those taking advantage of LPWAN can benefit from lower operating costs, longer battery life and increased network longevity.

Since launching the network in August 2021, Everynet has been actively deploying services within key verticals to address everything from smart metering and monitoring to flood management. As demand for LPWAN grows in the USA, Everynet’s network supports IoT use cases including:

• Utilities: Applications enable utilities to monitor, maintain and gather data remotely on water systems, substations, smart grid reclosers, transformers, LPG gas, and residential and commercial metering.
• Smart cities: Cities can monitor and manage lighting, streamline waste management services, manage flooding and check air quality.
• Smart infrastructure: Applications to monitor critical infrastructure including roads, pipelines and transportation of materials. In addition, the network can be used to monitor freight rail, shipping ports and subways to streamline operations and gather data for predictive maintenance.

Everynet also recognises the growing need for LPWAN as it relates to asset tracking. Its neutral host, open ecosystem network is suitable for organisations interested in bringing their supply-chain logistics function into the connected world. By managing the location, temperature, humidity and shock on everything from pallets to containers and goods, organisations can effectively receive real-time data on the movement, condition and arrival of assets through the complete supply chain.

“The addition of more than 130 logistics points to the Everynet network opens the door to improved asset tracking for organisations of all sizes,” said Gabriel Nave, Everynet vice president. “With long range indoor and outdoor connectivity and global roaming tracking capabilities, organisations have total asset visibility at key points along the journey, enabling them to more effectively meet customer expectations.”

The USA is the latest country to benefit from Everynet’s low-cost, LPWAN connectivity. With a history of defining and delivering SLAs to partners and end users, Everynet operates carrier grade networks throughout Asia, Emea and the Americas. It calls on platform providers and device makers to take advantage of the US network through its Ethingz ecosystem partner programme.

“To say that recent disruptive events like Covid-19, trade disputes, cyber terrorism and the war in Ukraine have had a huge impact on the global supply chain is to put it lightly,” said James Brehm, chief technology evangelist of James Brehm Associates. “As supply chains are adapting and rebounding, low power, low-cost network availability like the Everynet neutral host network can be a boon for supply chain agility and resilience.”

Everynet is a global LoRaWan operator and provides carrier grade networks in Asia, Emea and the Americas. Its neutral host network model enables mobile network operators, mobile virtual network operators and global managed service providers to offer low-cost IoT immediately and profitability with no upfront capital expenditure.
