IoT SIM specialists

At InfiSIM, we deliver leading connectivity solutions to businesses all around the world. Our IoT SIMs are powering a wide range of business use cases, from lift monitoring in smart buildings, to crop analysis in agriculture & farming.

IoT stands for ‘Internet of Things’. It’s used to describe the network of objects, or “things”, that contain software, sensors and other technology that enables them to connect to one another. The purpose of IoT is to use traversed data to automate processes and operate devices remotely. There are millions of different applications of IoT and it is utilised in every single industry to increase productivity, maximise accuracy and to reduce costs. IoT can be applied to large-scale machinery such as wind turbines as well as our everyday household items like our coffee machines.

At the end of 2018, there were 22 billon IoT-enabled devices. In 2022, this number has increased to 29 billion. That’s more than four times the amount of people on Earth. And what’s more, it’s estimated that 75 billion devices will be connected via the Internet of Things by 2025.

IoT systems are usually tailored to meet the specific needs of a business or end-user. However, most IoT devices transmit data in the same way. Here’s an example of how a basic IoT system works:

  1. Sensors

    A sensor or tracker within a device collects data. This could be temperature, pressure, lumens, motion, location or any other metric.

  2. Connectivity

    The data captured by your sensors is then transmitted to a cloud storage facility via M2M connectivity, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LPWAN or directly via a wired connection.

  3. Data processing

    This stored data is processed by software on the receiving device. The data is usually checked against a set of predefined rules to identify important information that the end-user requires.

  4. User interface

    Raw data that has been captured by sensors and traversed over to your device can be very complex. This needs to be turned into a format that is readable and useful for the end-user. This is usually sent to the end user in the form of an alert or notification such as a text or email. However, some data needs to be processed differently. In some cases, end-users may need to interact with the data you have received and make changes remotely. This is often the case with digital signage solutions when a motorway sign needs to be updated in relation to heavy traffic. And in other cases, an action may need to be performed automatically. For example, if an intruder is detected by a motion sensor on your remote CCTV solution, your security system can alert the police automatically, rather than sending an alert to your phone.

IoT SIM cards are data-focused SIMs that allow two or more smart devices to communicate with one another. There are a number of different types of IoT SIM, including multi-network SIMs, Fixed IP SIMs, eUICC SIMs and even LPWAN SIMs. Each of these different SIMs have unique features that enable businesses to deploy bespoke IoT solutions cost-effectively.

IoT SIMs are designed with automation in mind. Automating processes usually involves two or more machines that send and receive information. To do this, data must be traversed over a data connection. Standard SIM cards are designed for the consumer market and don’t come with the critical features or cost-efficiency businesses need when deploying IoT devices.

InfiSIM has established itself as an expert in the field of Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity. With years of experience in the industry and a team of highly skilled professionals, InfiSIM has built a reputation for delivering innovative and cutting-edge connectivity solutions. We have a deep understanding of IoT technology and are well-versed in the latest advancements in the field.

IoT SIM cards are used in almost every industry

IoT technology is used in every industry. In fact, it wouldn’t be a stretch to say that it can be found in almost every facet of everyday life. Whether it’s tracking your taxi to managing a fleet of sailing boats, IoT is embedded in our society.

Here’s a list of some of the major industries harnessing the Internet of Things:

Agriculture & farming

The Internet of Things is helping to transform agriculture and make farming easier for farmers. Data from crops and livestock that has been obtained through IoT sensors can be used by farmers to make informed decisions. Plus, remote security cameras are helping reduce the loss of machinery and equipment due to theft.

Fleet management & automotive

The automotive industry is a top contender when it comes to harnessing IoT technology. Connected cars are now the new normal, and fleets of vans and lorries are being fitted with M2M SIM cards to assist with supply chain monitoring and tracking.

Logistics

IoT can help companies save money on fuel costs and driver fatigue by optimising routes and reducing idle time. Our NOVA SIM management platform also ensures SIMs aren’t being misused.

Medicine & healthcare

By allowing doctors to monitor patients’ vital signs remotely, IoT reduces the need for expensive hospital visits and provides patients with the freedom to continue with their everyday lives.

Retail

Installing IoT SIMs in payment terminals allows merchants to safely, securely and quickly take payments over a wireless POS system, even when in remote locations like festivals and other events.

Smart buildings

Smart lighting and remote CCTV solutions are just two examples of how businesses are utilising IoT SIM cards to improve efficiency and security within their premises.

Smart cities

The Internet of Things is leading cities into the future. As investments in IoT and M2M technology continues to rise, new smart solutions are being deployed across our cities. From enhancing public safety with automatic streetlights to reducing congestion with remote traffic management solutions, entire cities are now harnessing the power of automation.

Utilities

The utilities industry is transforming thanks to the utilisation of IoT. Solutions such as smart meters are becoming commonplace in houses and offices to help manage energy usage. Plus, tracking devices are helping keep workforces safe in remote locations.

IoT SIM sizes and form factors

Our IoT SIM cards are available in the following form factors…

2FF SIM card

Mini SIM (2FF)

3FF SIM card

Micro SIM (3FF)

Nano SIM (4FF)

Embedded SIM (MFF2)

Embedded SIM cards are soldered to the circuit board of a device. Manufacturers often utilise them to prevent users from removing SIM cards and abusing them. They are also commonly used when an eUICC solution is required as SIMs do not need to be handled when provisioning SIMs over-the-air (OTA).

IoT SIM management

Visibility and control are key when deploying IoT SIM cards successfully, especially when you require hundreds or thousands of connections. That’s why we’ve invested heavily in our IoT connectivity management platform, NOVA. Get a birds eye view of your entire SIM estate and seamlessly manage your business’ IoT deployments from anywhere, on any device.
