Private LTE networks have a number of benefits for healthcare IoT applications. First, they are inherently more secure, this is because they enable the avoidance of the public internet, where data is vulnerable to cyber-attacks. They also offer users more control, for example, the ability to set rules for the type of traffic that’s allowed to originate from your SIM cards and traverse your LTE network. Finally, they enable greater access to and visibility of your connections, which makes troubleshooting faster and easier.
Yes, you can create a private LTE network on Telnyx using our Wireless and Virtual Cross Connect products. Get in touch with a Pomelo Tech expert to learn more.
As the demand for telehealth and telemedicine continues to surge, an increasing number of healthcare IoT devices and applications enable more effective remote patient monitoring. For example:
