Vodafone UK Machine to Machine

Vodafone brings together unrivalled capabilities – the world's largest mobile network, an outstanding customer experience and a long track record of success – which means our customers are confidently connected, receive unmatched services and customer experience and benefit from proven expertise. Regardless of whether you need an end-to-end solution or M2M managed connectivity, Vodafone will enable you to harness the full potential of M2M technology and keep your organisation ahead of the game. Vodafone UK brings a network that benefits from continual investment in capacity. Vodafone focus on giving you a strong signal both indoors and outdoors – unlike some operators who concentrate on spreading their signal over the widest area. We've been building our network for over 25 years – so we're at the forefront of innovation.

Vodafone are committed to giving you high speed internet wherever you are. They have their own fibre network and invest a lot, not just in 4G but in 3G or HSPA+, as it's sometimes referred to. Vodafone low U900 frequency means that the 3G signal travels further than ever before. So downloading or streaming in your Machine to machine application will be quick, whether you're indoors, in a city or living remotely in the countryside.

Not all 4G is the same. Vodafone own the most spectrum. They utilise a low frequency so you can get online ultrafast indoors. We're building a low frequency 800Mhz network, this means we're going to offer 98% indoor coverage in the UK – we can commit to doing this in the next few years because our 4G will travel further indoors than our signal ever has before. And their high frequency spectrum gives plenty of capacity so lots of people can get the most from their connection at the same time.

Vodafone Partnership

Mobius has been Vodafone’s only preferred distributor for Machine to Machine Data SIMs since 2008 and sees that relationship as a core part of the ‘better’ service that Mobius customers enjoy. This exclusive partnership means that Mobius takes product to market earlier than competitors. Mobius was the first to roll out the Global Platform in the UK. By working closely the two companies were able to make sure that this first roll out for Dorset County Council, was a success from the first go live onwards. It also means that Mobius has a ‘help desk to help desk’ relationship with Vodafone. Vital when identifying network issues, getting case numbers raised and keeping our customers informed during the incident and ensuring that all parties are kept informed throughout. Our customers are not fobbed off with an instruction to “take the SIM out, give it a rub and put it back in again.” Or informed simply “that the network is down.”
