TEAL, the first US-based eSIM platform to be certified by the GSMA, is partnering with Kigen to make available a version of the Kigen eSIM operating system (OS) with SGP.32-ready features, preloaded with TEAL’s in-house SGP.32 cloud platforms (eIM, SM-DS). The partnership supports original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and machine-to-machine (M2M) customers that will soon transition to formulas that support the new eSIM (embedded Subscriber Identity Module) for IoT specification (SGP.32).
Simplified commercial transition with SGP.31/32 specification
“The upcoming SGP.31/32 specification reduces the commercial complexity of switching between eSIM profiles and paves the path for LPWAN devices to leverage standardized RSP at scale,” observes John Canali, a principal analyst for IoT at Omdia. “We estimate this will boost global active cellular IoT connections by billions of new connections through 2028, aided by interoperability as companies adopt more adaptable solutions.”
TEAL’s wholly owned eSIM platform technology
TEAL’s wholly owned and patented eSIM Platform technology connects any device to any data network worldwide, giving businesses everywhere the flexibility and control to switch between networks over the air remotely. With the GSMA’s consumer eSIM for IoT specification, SGP.32, becoming the go-to deployment model for eSIM, this partnership sets a new standard for the management of IoT at scale.
Kigen eSIM OS combined with TEAL’s SGP.32-cloud platforms prioritises pragmatic steps to assist TEAL’s customers with transitioning to IoT eSIM. The ‘leading’ choice for energy-efficient devices, Kigen eSIM OS has undergone rigorous testing worldwide for interoperability across cloud platforms and eIM improving reliability and performance. OEMs looking to avoid battery draw for downloads of connectivity profiles in-field benefit from the additional capability to embed connectivity profiles with in-factory provisioning before the device ships.
Empowering IoT deployment with cutting-edge technology
“We are thrilled to partner with Kigen to provide a comprehensive solution melding Kigen’s SGP.32 operating system and TEAL’s advanced eSIM Platform technology,” said TEAL CEO, Robert Hamblet. “This partnership will enable us to provide our customers with the most forward-thinking eSIM technology available, ensuring the highest level of reliability and performance for any IoT deployment.”
The new solution from Kigen and TEAL will streamline device integration and facilitate broader eSIM adoption worldwide. Enterprise customers will also benefit from support for iSIM (integrated SIM) technology as physical eSIMs become a thing of the past. Interested OEMs can reach Kigen and TEAL teams during CES 2024 between 9-12 January 2024.
