NB-IoT smart door magnet market stimulated by the epidemic


In 2020, at the beginning of the new year, a "new coronavirus" swept in. In addition to the increasing number of people infected with the virus, the epidemic also had a very direct impact on the entire social economy. Many industries such as catering, retail, film, entertainment, and even industrial manufacturing, transportation, etc. are facing huge challenges.


Under this special background, are there any products that can "go against the market trend"? (Of course, in addition to hard currencies such as masks, alcohol, and disinfectants for epidemic prevention and control), the answer is definitely yes, after all, a special market environment can create special market demand. Recently, the author found that the market demand for NB-IoT door magnets has greatly increased. After the hype in recent years, NB-IoT technology has become familiar to everyone. Although the NB-IoT industry has maintained a relatively fast development speed in recent years, most of the connections are concentrated in meter reading industries such as smart water meters and smart gas meters, while other markets are relatively scattered. This is also one of the main factors hindering the large-scale implementation of NB-IoT technology. But under the current special market background, smart door magnet products based on NB-IoT transmission seem to be expected to become the next starting point.


How to use NB-IoT door sensor during the epidemic

Why the market demand for NB-IoT door magnet products has suddenly increased is mainly related to the current measures taken by local governments to prevent and control the epidemic. We know that the current "new coronavirus" is highly contagious. The measures taken by local governments are to isolate and observe the close contacts of the case once a confirmed or suspected case is found. Some places will even isolate and observe the entire building or community where the case is located. In order to achieve efficient and safe isolation inspection, necessary technical means are indispensable. Therefore, smart door magnet products based on NB-IoT have become a hot commodity.


When a set of NB-IoT door sensors is installed in the homes of people under quarantine and surveillance, if someone opens the door illegally, an alarm will be sent to the platform, a text message will be sent to the community management staff, and an on-site buzzer will sound an alarm, which will allow the community management staff to respond quickly. In special times, this is an effective way to prevent the spread of the epidemic.


Why is NB-IoT technology more advantageous in this market?

There are many transmission technologies for smart door sensors on the market. What are the advantages of NB-IoT in this market?

First, this market is mainly driven by operators and dominated by the government, so the choice of NB-IoT technology has certain policy tendencies;

Secondly, NB-IoT door sensors do not require additional gateway deployment and construction on site, so the overall cost is relatively low. In addition, during the critical period of the epidemic, rapid deployment is also a strong demand. These are the advantages of NB-IoT technology.

Finally, we need to consider the situation of repeated use. The observation period is generally about 2 weeks. After that, the door sensor can be used at the next observation point. This is also the advantage of NB-IoT technology.


What is the market prospect of NB-IoT door sensor?

For those who are concerned about this industry, what they want to know most is the market prospects of NB-IoT smart door sensors. For the temporary market of epidemic monitoring, judging from the number of people under quarantine observation announced so far, there is a demand of about 200,000 sets. Of course, this is only a temporary market. If you want to develop this industry in the long term, you need to pay more attention to the needs of the regular market.

In the conventional market, door sensor products have a wide range of applications in shops, offices, elderly homes and other scenarios, with market demand in the tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. Of course, different scenarios may have different demands for communication transmission technology, but with the maturity of the NB-IoT industry, the improvement of the cost-effectiveness of the solution, and the support of operators' advantages such as large-scale network deployment, NB-IoT will occupy an important market share.
