Leveraging Singtel’s robust network meant strong local mobile coverage across all locations. The private, reliable, and secure connectivity allows for frictionless communication between the bicycles, mobile app and management portal. Embedded into every lock are Singtel M2M SIMs that use the CAT-M1 network, which allows for low data usage and power consumption.
Unlike traditional mobile SIMs, Singtel M2M SIMs have unique IP addresses, which make tracking the bicycle and SIM remotely possible.
Htay Aung adds, “Ever since adopting IoT technology in our 4th generation locks, the stability and reliability of our unlocking experience have improved significantly, and this has led to higher ridership.”
