All you need to know about eSIM for IoT devices
Best practice guide for eSIM and cellular IoT
In today’s digital world, the demand for seamless connectivity of devices and networks has never been greater. As 5G networks expand and eSIM specifications evolve, eSIM technology is becoming crucial in providing seamless connectivity to IoT and consumer devices.
By 2030, nearly 70% of all cellular devices shipped will be eSIM/iSIM-capable, driven by smartphones and cellular IoT modules.

The surge in Internet of Things (IoT) applications is transforming industries through continuous data streams and advanced analytics, helping organizations achieve unparalleled levels of efficiency. However, it is essential to ensure the device data is authentic, especially as companies use AI to gain insights and automate tasks to maintain a competitive edge.
According to IoT Analytics State of IoT Summer 2024 report, there were 16.6 billion connected IoT devices by the end of 2023. IoT Analytics expects this to grow 13% to 18.8 billion by the end of 2024.
The rapid growth of connected devices enhances the value of eSIM technology, which enables device makers to use the cellular SIM as a standardized hardware-based ‘root-of-trust’ to authenticate and authorize IoT devices. Additionally, eSIMs enable manufacturers to design energy-efficient hardware that can switch networks over the air for optimum coverage and can be remotely provisioned and updated.
Our eSIM OS provides secure and reliable cellular network connections through remote SIM provisioning (RSP), supporting multiple carrier profiles and software updates.
