Questions regarding the TTN fair access policy

Great! Then you don’t have to worry about anything. For prototyping we understand that you’ll probably send more messages and that’s not a problem. Just make sure the final application keeps traffic to a minimum. As we are all sharing the same frequencies (also with telecom operators like KPN), you should optimize your application regardless of the provider you choose.

  1. The fair use policy is based on the amount of devices we want to support on each gateway. You don’t have to worry about the backend, it will be able to scale as traffic increases.
  2. Everything counts. Each uplink counts towards the total uplink, and each downlink (including ACKs) counts towards the total downlink. We recommend to avoid downlink (and therefore also confirmed uplink) as much as possible.
