The button has landed.

We launched the AT&T LTE-M Button. It offers endless possibilities for businesses to save time, money and improve customer convenience and satisfaction through the Internet of Things.

AWS IoT 1-Click service seamlessly connects the button to our nationwide LTE-M network. And it triggers a host of actions at the push of a button. Just a few of the possibilities:

  • Instant customer feedback at hotel conference rooms, airports and sports venues.
  • Mobile suppliers on the go can place orders from wherever they are.
  • Products delivered to your front door at the touch of a button.
  • Get automatic alerts from buttons attached to connected trash cans or oil storage containers when it’s time for a pickup.
  • The button can be a “virtual concierge” for seniors to check in with caregivers on health status and call for medication – all in the comfort of their own home.

The possibilities go on and on.

And no need to rely on Wi Fi or Bluetooth – it’s ready for use right out of the box.

That means orders for tools and supplies can be placed from a job site where there is no Wi-Fi coverage. And there is no need to connect separately to a hodge-podge of Wi-Fi networks with passwords.

Our nationwide LTE-M network offers extended battery life, improved coverage in hard-to-reach places, like underground or deep inside buildings, and carrier-grade security.

The AT&T LTE-M Button is available now on AT&T’s IoT Marketplace
