With the PSTN Switch-off fast approaching, legacy connectivity is becoming obsolete. Critical systems, including alarms, intercoms, utility meters, and medical devices still depend on analogue lines. Without a modern solution, these essential services risk failure. That’s where Smart Mobile Data steps in: a flexible, resilient, and secure alternative to keep your operations running smoothly.
IoT in transportation powers tracking, maintenance, and route optimisation—boosting efficiency and safety.
IoT in retail drives smarter shopping with real-time stock tracking and personalised customer experiences.
IoT in agriculture supports precision farming with real-time insights to boost yield and reduce waste.
IoT in construction enhances safety and efficiency through smart equipment tracking and site monitoring.
An IoT SIM card is designed to provide mobile data connectivity for connected devices rather than for normal smartphone use. It can be used in equipment such as routers, CCTV systems, tracking devices, payment terminals, sensors and other connected hardware that needs reliable access to a mobile network.
Yes. Fidelis Plus can provide multi-network IoT SIMs that are able to connect to more than one UK mobile network. This can improve resilience because the device may be able to use an alternative available network if the preferred network has weak coverage or becomes unavailable.
Yes. IoT SIMs can be used in compatible 4G or 5G routers to provide mobile internet connectivity. This can be useful for remote sites, temporary locations, unattended equipment or applications where fixed broadband is unavailable or where mobile connectivity is required as part of a resilient network design.
Yes. Multiple IoT SIMs can be managed as part of a single business account, making it easier to monitor connections, data usage and deployed devices. This can be particularly useful for businesses operating fleets, CCTV installations, remote equipment or large numbers of connected devices across multiple locations.
A standard mobile SIM is usually designed for phones and user-based voice, text and data services. An IoT SIM is designed for connected devices and can offer features better suited to machine-to-machine connectivity, such as centralised management, flexible data plans and access to multiple mobile networks depending on the service selected.
IoT SIMs can be used in a wide range of compatible devices, including 4G and 5G routers, CCTV systems, vehicle tracking equipment, telemetry devices, payment terminals, smart sensors, alarm systems and other connected equipment that requires mobile data connectivity.
International connectivity depends on the IoT SIM service and roaming profile selected. Some IoT SIMs can connect to mobile networks in multiple countries, making them suitable for devices that travel internationally or are deployed across different locations. The available countries and networks should be confirmed before deployment.
With a multi-network IoT SIM, the device may be able to connect to another available supported network, subject to signal coverage and the SIM profile. This can provide greater resilience than relying on a single mobile network, particularly for devices in remote locations or applications where continuous connectivity is important.
