What is eUICC?
eUICC technology revolutionizes the traditional SIM card by enabling multiple profiles on a single card, compatible with any SIM form factor. In the future, you will be able to remotely provision multiple network profiles over-the-air (OTA) via our IoT Suite, without the need to physically replace the SIM in the field. For further details, please visit our eUICC SIMs & Embedded SIM Technology section, where you can find comprehensive information on this innovative technology.
What is pLTE?
Private LTE refers to a local wireless network that uses LTE technology used by cellular networks, to provide high-speed wireless communication within a specific area. However, unlike traditional cellular networks that are operated by public carriers, private LTE networks are owned, deployed, and operated by private organizations for their specific needs.
There are 3 main variants:
- Private LTE Core with Public mobile networks – This solution allows you to use Public LTE networks, but all data traffic is routed back through the mobile IPX network to your own packet gateway (P-GW). This setup allows for advanced security, with the P-GW residing in your own cloud or datacentre environment.
- Private LTE Core with Private radio network – This deployed is a standalone variant of the Private LTE infrastructure. This is available in certain countries where there is availability of public LTE spectrum. The Private LTE core is deployed on-premise or in a cloud environment. All traffic on the private radio network is routed back to this Private LTE core. This solution is suitable for remote locations or campus environment where the mobile LTE devices do not leave the geographical footprint of the radio network.
- Private LTE Core with Public and Private networks – This deployment combines the benefit of Private radio network with Public mobile operator networks, allowing for seamless connectivity as devices move in and out of the Private radio network area.

What is eSIM?
An eSIM (embedded Subscriber Identity Module) is a digital configuration stored on an eUICC (embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card) chip within a device. It replaces the need for a physical SIM card, containing operator information, network settings, and authentication details. An eSIM profile enables devices to connect to mobile networks, switch carriers remotely, and simplify the process of accessing cellular services.
