L’abandon des réseaux 2G et 3G
Les opérateurs du monde entier ont déjà mis fin aux services 3G ou prévoient de le faire dans un avenir proche. En général, les services 3G sont retirés plus tôt que les services 2G, ce qui signifie que les services 2G seront encore disponibles dans de nombreux pays (en particulier en Europe) pendant un certain temps.
Les réseaux parlent de « sunsetting ». Mais comme un grand nombre d’applications machine à machine (M2M) et d’applications de l’internet des objets (IoT) dépendent encore des services 3G (et 2G), les propriétaires de ces solutions doivent envisager la nécessité d’une mise hors service, d’un échange de cartes SIM, d’une mise à niveau et/ou d’un remplacement complet des appareils.
L’impact sur les déploiements IoT dépend d’un certain nombre de facteurs, y compris (mais sans s’y limiter) le module cellulaire utilisé, le type de SIM, la configuration de la connectivité et la disponibilité de services porteurs alternatifs. Il est essentiel d’évaluer l’impact probable de l’extinction de certains réseaux sur les déploiements.
La prochaine génération de produits IoT utilisera les technologies 4G, 5G et les dernières technologies Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) pour s’assurer qu’ils restent connectés tout au long de leur cycle de vie.

Dates d’extinction des réseaux 2G et 3G dans le monde
Les réseaux qui n’apparaissent pas dans ce tableau peuvent ne pas avoir annoncé publiquement leurs projets d’arrêt des réseaux 2G ou 3G. Officiellement, les réseaux ne doivent donner qu’un préavis de trois mois pour confirmer l’arrêt de leurs services.
Si votre carte SIM est en itinérance dans un pays différent de son réseau d’origine, la disponibilité des services réseau dépendra des accords d’itinérance en place avec les fournisseurs de réseau locaux. Veuillez vérifier les services réseau disponibles dans les pays où vos appareils sont déployés.
