eDRX in LTE-M Network
-
Hi. For a field test trial of smart metering products we like to use eDRX in LTE-M network in germany (postal code 49504). Currently we are using standard CAT-M1 communication with with PSM. We want to improve and add eDRX. Is it feasible with Telekom network and m2m SIM cards?
Kind regards. -
Dear Mr. Bruns,
The eDRX feature unfortunately isn’t yet available in our German network but its nationwide deployment is in preparation. I will gladly inform you via this post as soon as it is done.
If it can help (for test purpose), eDRX has already been enabled in Austria in our Magenta Telekom network and is being rolled out as we speak in our T-Mobile Netherlands network.
Kind regards,

@ronan-lacroix Hi Mr. Lacroix, regarding your respone to my eDRX question: Is there a roadmap for feature availability available? Or even a rough estimation?

@herr-bruns ,
Hi Mr. Bruns,
We have started piloting eDRX for LTE-M in parts of our network. If everything runs smoothly, we will deploy the feature nationwide beginning of next year and make it available to all our customers.
I will inform you as soon as we are done!
Kind regards,

@Ronan-Lacroix Please give a status update. When will eDRX in LTE-M be available? I’m interested to use it with roaming SIMs to.

@Herr-Bruns,
Sorry for my long silence!
I just wanted to inform you that eDRX has eventually been enabled a few weeks ago and is available across our complete LTE-M network.
Please let me know if you have any questions when testing this feature.
Kind regards,
Ronan Lacroix
