This unique approach in the world of wirelessconnectivity, where there is no signaling overhead, a compact and optimized protocol, and where objectsare not attached to the network. Sigfox offers a software based communications solution, where all thenetwork and computing complexity is managed in the Cloud, rather than on the devices. All that together, it drastically reduces energy consumption and costs of connected devices.
