TECHNOLOGY · eSIM
IoT eSIM for devices without a SIM slot
An eSIM or solderable MFF2 chip stays inside the device and receives its profile remotely. Ideal for hardware you never want to open again after installation.
- MFF2
- Solderable form factor
- 0
- Times opening the device
- IP67
- Fits sealed enclosures
THE CHALLENGE
Opening hardware in the field costs more than the card
Once a device is installed, every physical visit is expensive.
Sealed enclosures
Waterproof or potted devices have no usable SIM slot.
Vibration and temperature
A loose card in a vehicle or machine can work free or oxidise.
Changing network
If a network underperforms you want to switch without going on site.
Production at scale
Inserting cards into thousands of devices slows assembly.
OUR APPROACH
One chip, profiles delivered remotely
We guide the choice between eSIM, MFF2 and a classic card.
Provision the profile
The right network profile is loaded remotely, also after roll-out.
Plan a fallback
A second profile ready in case the primary network disappoints.
Deliver to production
Chips in tape-and-reel or cards in batch, activated to your schedule.

RATES
Which plan fits this solution?
The eSIM does not change the price: you pick the same plan as with a physical card. The profile is loaded remotely, which mainly saves logistics and field-visit costs for devices already deployed.

Frequently asked questions about IoT eSIM
How is this different from a travel eSIM?↓
A travel eSIM is meant for an employee phone. An IoT eSIM sits inside a device, comes in industrial grade and is managed centrally.
Does my modem support eSIM?↓
Not every modem does. Send us the model and we confirm whether eSIM, MFF2 or a classic card is the right choice.
Can I switch networks after installation?↓
That is exactly why you choose eSIM. A new profile is loaded remotely without opening the device.
Does an IoT eSIM work abroad?↓
Yes, with roaming profiles for Europe and worldwide, depending on your deployment.
