GCT Semiconductor Holding Inc., a number one designer and provider of superior 4G and 5G semiconductor options, and Giesecke+Devrient (G+D), a worldwide supplier of eSIM know-how and developer of the primary GSMA SGP.32 fully-certified product, right this moment introduced their partnership to launch a cutting-edge SGP.32 eSIM answer with Built-in Profile Activation Machine (IPAd) help for multi-network IoT units.
This collaboration for eSIMs, or SIM playing cards straight embedded into a tool, brings clever, location-aware connectivity to headless 4G and 5G IoT units. As well as, the collaboration ensures peak efficiency primarily based on location, availability, price and coverage – an unprecedented development for mission-critical purposes throughout industries. GCT will probably be together with this superior functionality in all future 4G & 5G chipsets.
SGP.32 is GSMA’s newest eSIM technical specification for IoT that ensures eSIM IoT applied sciences are safe and interoperable with networks worldwide. By integrating SGP.32 with the software program part IPAd’s capabilities straight into GCT’s multi-network 4G and 5G chipsets and modules, the answer allows out-of-the-box connectivity and versatile lifecycle administration with out the necessity for bodily SIM swaps or person intervention.
“The adoption of eSIM technology in IoT devices and wearables has become increasingly popular, driven by the new capabilities of remote SIM,” stated John Schlaefer, CEO of GCT.
“However, many IoT devices lack a user interface to fully access this functionality – a challenge that IPAd effectively addresses. We look forward to working closely with G+D to provide advanced device flexibility and improved security for the growing market of IoT products worldwide.”
“The eSIM market continues to grow, both in importance and size, and is one of the core connectivity solutions of the future especially in the IoT area. Since introducing the first eSIM in 2012, and to date having provided over 500 million eSIM downloads, G+D has pioneered this space with solution innovation and by driving industry adoption and collaboration,” stated BeeGek Lim, International Head of Digital Connectivity Options at G+D.
“To stay at the forefront of this technology it is important to collaborate with the right partners. We are pleased to work closely with GCT to continue to define and shape the cellular connected future of the IoT.”
