MTS wants to sell 20 million smart locks per year to farmers and power engineers

A representative of MTS told Vedomosti about the new development of a smart lock for corporate clients. “The solution is a vandal-resistant padlock with a built-in NB-IoT Internet of Things radio module, which is opened and locked remotely from a mobile application, via a web interface or by calling a dispatcher,” he said.

We are talking about the own development of MTS, said the interlocutor. He noted that the cost of a kit with one padlock, access to an IT platform and a mobile application, as well as a lithium-thionyl chloride battery for it, is about 21,000 rubles. For the solution to work, radio access to the MTS mobile network is required, the company representative added: through applications, the system will be able to identify the employee before entering the premises.
