emnify, a provider of global cellular connectivity solutions, has announced the launch of its IoT (internet of things) eSIM (embedded-SIM) platform. The emnify IoT eSIM, anchored in the eUICC (embedded universal integrated circuit card) architecture, is unlocking adaptability and scalability in IoT connectivity.
emnify deploys eSIM as the default SIM platform. This new move introduces new functionalities to the emnify IoT SuperNetwork. Available across all form factors, the new emnify IoT eSIM supplies customers with a flexible cellular connectivity solution. This solution is optimised without the hassle of physically swapping outdated SIM cards. It can also be personalised by customers to meet the needs of specific IoT use cases, such as optimised battery consumption for remote deployments and preferred access technologies for high bandwidth scenarios.
IoT devices often face challenges such as a limited lifespan due to design and power constraints, and the need to adapt to new radio access technologies. The emnify IoT eSIM tackles these issues head-on, providing a technological foundation that’s truly future proof. It enables enterprises to update tailored SIM profiles and configurations according to their IoT applications and device power requirements. This positions it as a solution for businesses seeking greater operational capabilities beyond the industry’s conventional offerings.
“The new emnify IoT eSIM is a generational technology shift, not only in leveraging previously unavailable SIM capabilities, but also in how IoT connectivity is delivered,” says Frank Stoecker, CEO and co-founder of emnify. “By overcoming the limitations of how eUICC technology is applied, we make sure that emnify’s customers benefit by individualising SIMs to their needs, and benefit from the most advanced cellular connectivity solution available.”
As a central pillar of emnify’s global IoT SuperNetwork, the eSIM platform gives enterprises unrivaled control over their connectivity and seamless integration with their IoT application stack. The launch of the new emnify IoT eSIM platform represents a significant milestone in the IoT industry’s development. It stands out as the IoT connectivity service allowing customers to tailor an essential element like the SIM in real-time and at scale.
