Multi-Network Connectivity for Lift Emergency Lines

A global lift and elevator monitoring provider needed every emergency phone line, in every lift, in every market, to work the same way. Instead of negotiating a local carrier relationship for every country it operated in, it moved to a single multi-network model with OV.

Wholesale eSIM for Travel Resellers: One Relationship

A B2B2C travel eSIM reseller, serving its own book of business customers, needed direct wholesale economics and the flexibility to run its own promotions, rather than another resale layer standing between it and the underlying network.

Connectivity Platform Integration: APIs, Webhooks and Automation

A connectivity dashboard is fine for checking on a handful of devices. It stops being useful the moment a team is managing thousands of SIMs across multiple products and markets, because nobody has time to log into a separate portal to check status, provision a batch of new devices, or investigate why a specific SIM stopped reporting.

How to Run a Meaningful IoT Connectivity Pilot

Most connectivity pilots succeed at the wrong thing. They confirm that a device can connect to a network in one location, under stable conditions, over a few weeks, and then the team moves to full deployment on the strength of that result.

Nine IoT Connectivity Decisions Teams Regret (And How to Avoid Them)

Connectivity decisions rarely feel important at the time they’re made. A pilot of fifty devices works fine on a single network with a standard SIM and no particular visibility tooling, because at that scale, almost anything works fine.

IoT Connectivity SLAs: What Is Realistic and What to Negotiate

A service level agreement is meant to give a buyer confidence about what they’re actually purchasing. In IoT connectivity, it often does the opposite. Vague uptime percentages, undefined terms, and remedies that don’t match the actual risk leave procurement teams with a document that looks reassuring and tells them very little.

Travel eSIM Wholesale: How Resellers Source Global Data Connectivity

A traveller buying a data plan from a well-known eSIM app rarely thinks about what sits underneath the brand on their phone. But almost none of the well-known consumer travel eSIM names actually operate their own mobile network.

IoT SIM Security: IoT SAFE, Private Networking and Device Identity

A fleet of ten thousand devices is also ten thousand SIM cards, ten thousand network identities, and ten thousand potential entry points. Most security conversations in IoT start at the application layer: encryption in the cloud, authentication on the API, access control on the dashboard.

SGP.32 Migration: Moving an Existing Estate to eIM

The question SGP.32 explainers leave open is the one operations teams actually hold: we have an estate already in the field, on some mixture of conventional SIMs, SGP.02-era eUICC and assorted contracts, so what, concretely, is our path to the new architecture? The honest answer has more texture than the standard’s marketing, because SGP.32 adoption is not a switch an estate flips; it is a capability that arrives with new hardware and a transition the existing estate makes selectively, where it can and where it pays.

Asset Tracking SIM Cards: Coverage, Power and Roaming Considerations

An asset tracker has the least forgiving job description in IoT: be wherever the asset is, on whatever network exists there, on a battery someone hopes to ignore for years, at a unit economics that survives being deployed in the thousands.

CCTV and Video Surveillance Connectivity: Bandwidth, Uptime and SIM Strategy

Video is the heaviest payload in IoT by an enormous margin, and surveillance is where it meets the awkward truth of cellular economics: a camera can generate more data in an afternoon than a thousand sensors generate in a year.
