Cost-effective IoT connectivity with the NXP OL2361 Sigfox modem

NXP OL2361 Modem
In the dynamic IoT world, cost-effective and scalable solutions for large-scale deployments are essential. The NXP OL2361 Sigfox modem offers just that: a Sigfox-compatible, compact solution for areas such as logistics, asset tracking and supply chain management.

What makes the OL2361 Sigfox modem special?

The OL2361 modem features ultra-low power consumption, low hardware requirements and integrated functions such as temperature and voltage sensors. Combined with NXP’s active RFID tag design, it enables seamless visibility for assets, regardless of location.

What is the “active” RFID design?

NXP’s active RFID design combines the advantages of RFID with Sigfox technology. While conventional RFID tags can only be read over short distances, the active design enables longer range and more comprehensive tracking. This hybrid solution uses RFID for identification and Sigfox to transmit location data over long distances, making assets visible virtually anywhere. This integration is particularly valuable for tracking goods in logistics, where real-time visibility is required.

Application examples

  • Pallet tracking: transparency across the entire logistics chain
  • Cold chain monitoring: Effective tracking of temperature-critical goods
  • Device management: real-time monitoring of non-powered rental items

Heliot Europe supports affordable and flexible IoT solutions through the OL2361 and highlights the synergy between Sigfox and NXP.
