No, it isn't, though the concepts are related. A connected device is any device that can connect to a network or another device to transmit data, such as smartphones or smart home gadgets. An IoT device is a type of connected device that is linked to Internet-based platforms, software, and tools. In short, all IoT devices are connected devices, but not all connected devices are IoT devices.
