NB-IoT: Cost Effective Technology That Works from Day One.

NB-IoT is a technology standard that enables the creation of a new generation of IoT devices: requiring less bandwidth, less energy, and lower connectivity requirements. As the newest standard-size digital IoT display on the market to utilize this technology, the sepioo D4.2 NB-IoT can help your business transition seamlessly to cutting-edge IIoT technology at a lower price point: minimizing implementation costs by eliminating infrastructure requirements and ensuring a cost-effective digital display solution from day one.

The accessibility and scalability of NB-IoT opens the door for multiple industries to harness the power of the internet of things by accessing all the functionality they need, and none that they don’t.

How Narrowband works

The Future, on Display

Like all sepioo® displays, the sepioo D4.2 NB-IoT connects seamlessly to our sepioo IoT platform to ensure reliable control over your digital displays and the interactions with them, delivering real-time information to staff and customers on high-quality devices. As the sepioo® SaaS platform can be implemented immediately into practically any industrial setting, there is no end to the flexible and dynamic use cases our technology can provide.

Better yet, the sepioo D4.2 NB-IoT’s integrated BLE chip facilitates real-time location-based information services – including Quuppa RTLS – enabling the transmission of information based on physical location and the automation of actions within industrial workflows as a result.

The display itself operates via a Black/White e-Ink film, which allows high performance switching across 12 usable pages and the accurate display of drawings and diagrams. Meanwhile PDi Digital’s trademark robustness and durability (IP65 protection class) ensures unrivaled value for money in the long term – even in harsh outdoor environments. With four buttons for two-way communication as well as USB-C charging for an energy-efficient battery, the device ensures incredible technology and ultimate user-friendliness in a single compact display.

Use Cases: IIoT for Everyone, Everywhere.

The sepioo D4.2 NB-IoT features smart IIoT technology that’s designed for extensive application. Although similar in functionality to our existing sepioo D12.2 NB-IoT, the smaller screen (4.2 inches) combined with extensive functionality means game-changing advantages across a range of new use cases.

 

While the display empowers all kinds of companies to expand their IIoT capabilities without the need for costly overhauls or complex installations, we see particular potential in the following areas:

Car Wholesale

When your whole business is on wheels, keeping tabs on your inventory is a serious business. With the sepioo D4.2 NB-IoT display, there’s a simple, scalable and digital way to manage bulk-purchases and individual sales.

 

With minimal installation effort, displays can be placed in every car to show order and pickup dates, ID numbers and other important information – while real-time updates mean that your back office systems are always in-sync with your team on the ground. The result: a considerable simplification of large consignments and the technology your dealership needs to scale.

Logistics Tracking

In logistics, keeping an accurate overview of high-value goods is extremely important: and a paper-based tracking system can no longer meet your needs in the age of Industry 4.0. Fortunately, the sepioo  D4.2 NB-IoT is the device you need to implement a digitalized locationing system built on GPS and RTLS technology.

Once attached to a transport box or container, the locationing capability built into the display enables accurate tracking, while information on logistics and order management can also be displayed easily. With location-based information by sepioo® and connection to our versatile sepioo® SaaS platform, you’ll also ensure that the right information is always shown, to the right people, at the right time.

Building Management

The sepioo D4.2 NB-IoT display is also an ideal solution for building management, particularly when applied to room and meeting signage use cases. With its compact size and advanced NB-IoT connectivity, the display offers unparalleled flexibility and efficiency.

Connected to a centralized booking system (and with two-way communication to incorporate on-site inputs) the device provides real-time updates on room availability: streamlining scheduling and optimizing space utilization. For end users, the clearly displayed meeting details such as time, location, and agenda can facilitate smooth and organized events.
