CLOUD & 5G
Today , there are still numerous smartphones that are not yet eSIM enabled with access often limited to the higher range devices . This is in addition to the fact that not all mobile network operators ( MNOs ) and Mobile Virtual Network Operators ( MVNOs ) provide eSIM solutions on their networks . Although both these trends are changing for the positive . But the benefits of eSIM are clear and far-reaching , and there is more awareness required to encourage consumers to prioritise eSIM capability when selecting devices and network providers .
“ Significant progress is being made , however . Many major manufacturers are now offering eSIM devices , including IoT sensors , cars , laptops , smartwatches and smartphones . The iPhone 14 in the US even uses an eSIM exclusively , accelerating its market adoption . As the next chapter in the ongoing SIM story , the integration of iSIMs into the baseband chipset paves the way for the next generation of secure IoT connectivity .”
The G + D team are specialists in the secure personalisation of iUICC in IoT devices , and are working with multiple technology partners to commercialise new solutions .
“ Looking ahead , we ’ re fully committed to the development and implementation of new SIM technologies to help our customers , industries and the environment ,” says Tobias .
Tobias anticipates that the combination of these advanced SIM technologies with 5G – and eventually 6G – along with satellite connectivity , represent the next step in providing true global mobile connectivity .
Meanwhile at EY , Adrian knows that EY ’ s work with hyperscalers in mobile technology will help mobile operators to harness the power of cloud computing to enhance their mobile applications , ensuring they are scalable , highperforming , secure and innovative .
Hyperscalers will play an essential part of the management of 5G networks , allowing mobile operators to deploy 5G infrastructure more efficiently and handling the low latency requirements of 5G . mobile-magazine . com 99
