4G vs LTE-M vs 5G: Which IoT Network Is Right for Your Deployment?
Understand the strengths of each cellular IoT technology so you can select the best option for coverage, power usage, and performance.
4G LTE for High-Throughput IoT
4G LTE remains the global default for IoT connectivity thanks to its widespread availability, fast data speeds, and stable low-latency performance. It is ideal for applications that require real-time communication, video transmission, telematics, industrial control, and high-bandwidth data.
4G offers excellent regional and international roaming support, making it a reliable choice for fleets travelling across borders or devices deployed in remote or rural areas. For businesses needing a proven, mature connectivity layer with strong resilience and multi-network access, 4G is the most dependable option.
LTE-M for Low-Power, Mobility-Friendly IoT
LTE-M (also known as Cat-M1) is designed for IoT devices that need lower power consumption, better signal penetration, and support for mobility. Unlike NB-IoT, LTE-M supports cell tower handovers, making it ideal for trackers, wearables, asset monitoring, and battery-powered sensors that move between regions.
LTE-M delivers reduced bandwidth compared to 4G but maintains enough throughput for telemetry, firmware updates, and event-based communications. It strikes a balance between efficiency and mobility, making it ideal for long-life devices and large-scale sensor networks.
5G for Ultra-Fast, Next-Generation IoT
5G delivers the highest performance across IoT technologies, offering ultra-low latency, extremely high throughput, and the ability to support massive device densities. This makes it suitable for advanced IoT applications such as industrial automation, robotics, AR/VR systems, connected vehicles, smart infrastructure, and high-bandwidth video streaming.
While global roaming availability for 5G is still growing, IoT Data Connect already provides access to expanding 5G networks worldwide. For organisations building future-proof solutions or requiring real-time responsiveness at scale, 5G is the premium choice.
Multi-Network Roaming Explained
Modern IoT deployments need reliable coverage in every location. Multi-network roaming allows a single IoT SIM to attach to multiple mobile networks in each country, giving your devices the ability to choose the strongest and most stable signal at any time.
IoT Data Connect uses non-steered roaming, meaning your devices are not forced onto a preferred network. Instead, they automatically select the best available signal based on real-time network performance. This is essential for IoT applications that cannot tolerate downtime, including telemetry, security systems, EV charging, industrial gateways, and remote sensors.
Our global mobile network agreements allow your devices to connect across more than 180 countries with seamless roaming and instant failover. Even if one network experiences congestion or an outage, your IoT SIM can recover by switching to an alternative available network within seconds.

What our customers think of us.
I’m so glad I used these people, I initially ordered a sim that was requested by my technician for my electric gates, the next morning I had a call from M2M group explaining the different plans and networks, I’m so glad they called me, the price is very good too for a year plan with multiple networks, I initially ordered a single network sim as I did not realise there were others to choose from, the sim/gates app works like a dream, no matter where I am I can open the gates and let someone in, my experience of a single network sim is intermittent access, thank goodness I got a call the next morning, thank you for your help and advice with getting the right sim, much appreciated.
