It is a feature of using lower frequencies together with lower data rates and signal processing technologies. Consult with any RF engineer -- there is no magic here, just practical…

The part of the article that addresses data interoperability and databasing on the endpoint (without cloud middleman) is important for use cases where there are ownership issues. T…
