About
A Nationwide 0G IoT network
Sigfox Canada launched in April 2019 as Canada’s first nationwide provider of low power, wide area (LPWA) connectivity for IoT devices. As the Canadian network operator for the Sigfox Global IoT Network, Sigfox Canada provides Sigfox 0G connectivity from coast to coast, as far east as St. John’s, Newfoundland, and as far west as Vancouver, British Columbia.
Unlike short-range communication technologies like Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, Sigfox LPWA transmissions can send small data packets across tremendous distances — 3-10km in urban areas, and as much as 50km in rural areas.
For the tiny sensors and actuators powering many IoT deployments, this combination of low power draw and extraordinary range offers significant advantages, especially in terms of connectivity cost and battery life.
