On January 24, 2023, Eseye, a leader in cutting-edge cellular IoT connectivity solutions, announced the launch of its groundbreaking AnyNet SMARTconnect™ software solution for on-device connectivity. The new solution directly embeds intelligent, global IoT connectivity into any device, allowing businesses to bring products to market faster and concentrate on providing value to their consumers.

Furthermore, AnyNet SMARTconnect™ improves resiliency by keeping devices linked and optimized now and in the future. This enables IoT initiatives to scale without the need to hire expensive, hard-to-find connectivity or firmware engineers. AnyNet SMARTconnectTM, which will be on display at the IoT Solutions World Congress in Barcelona beginning January 31, is already in use by some of Eseye's commercial customers.

AnyNet SMARTconnect™, supplied as an independent plug-in software module, codifies Eseye's decades of connectivity expertise into a robust and flexible device software that customers and partners can easily integrate into their IoT or connected device. This ensures "right-first-time" delivery and enables device design flexibility to help future-proof the solution as it navigates present and future supply chain challenges.

It facilitates greater deployments by allowing for a single SKU, including initial bootstrapping and provisioning. In addition, AnyNet SMARTconnect™ enables businesses to bypass software development and embed plug-and-play connectivity intelligence right into their products. This can fasten product launches by up to 9 months, significantly lowering expenses and allowing them to focus on the applications and data that provide value to their clients.

AnyNet SMARTconnect™ utilizes Eseye's AnyNet Federation, a global mobile network alliance spanning 190 countries that provides access to over 700 global networks with more localization options than any other provider, as well as its award-winning Infinity IoT Connectivity Management Platform™.

It includes a set of higher-layer communication protocol extensions such as CoAP, MQTT, and Lightweight Machine to Machine (LWM2M) that benefit from understanding and responding to network state. For example, before performing a Firmware Over the Air (FOTA) update, the LWM2M may wait for higher, more cost-effective bandwidth and increased signal strength.

Intelsat Enhances Deutsche Telekom IoT’s Reach with FlexEnterprise

Intelsat | March 01, 2023

On February 28, 2023, Intelsat, a leading provider of inflight connectivity operating one of the world's largest integrated satellite and terrestrial networks, announced that Deutsche Telekom IoT (DT IoT) is looking to integrate Intelsat FlexEnterprise. By integrating with FlexEnterprise, DT IoT can extend its powerful, user-friendly, cloud-based Internet of Things (IoT) offering across locations regardless of fiber or cellular connectivity options. IoT services are increasingly utilized by a wide range of industries, collecting data from thousands of devices and analyzing it to help organizations improve system efficiency, reduce waste, monitor sensitive environments, and gain new insights into operations and procedures. By leveraging FlexEnterprise as a complement to cellular connectivity, DT can expand the reach and efficacy of its solution and generate better outcomes for its customers. FlexEnterprise is an enterprise-grade connectivity service that combines satellite and terrestrial networks to advance internet, cloud, and private networks. Intelsat manages the global FlexEnterprise infrastructure, removing the need for clients to maintain satellite infrastructure and expertise. DT will receive FlexEnterprise from Intelsat as a satellite-as-a-service offering, thereby reducing the time and expense required to operate new services. The Intelsat FlexEnterprise satellite platform permits mobile network operators to provide terrestrial-like services regardless of location. For instance, industrial IoT (IIoT) customers can connect devices in inaccessible places to control wind turbines on mountaintops or offshore or to assess flood risks by measuring the water levels in remote areas. Brian Jakins, Intelsat Networks General Manager, shared, "Satellite connectivity allows IoT to connect physical objects and devices from anywhere on the globe to the virtual world to enhance real-time data collection, analysis and decision making," He added, "With FlexEnterprise, DT expands the usefulness of its IoT offering, especially for widely distributed applications like renewable energy infrastructure and green IoT environmental monitoring." (Source – Business Wire) About Intelsat Intelsat is a leading provider of secure and seamless satellite-based communications, serving government, NGO and commercial customers across the globe. With one of the world's most advanced satellite fleet and connectivity infrastructures, it connects people and tools across oceans, continents and skies, enabling communication, cooperation and coexistence.

Hologram's eUICC SIM Offers Network Fallback for IoT Devices

Hologram | February 23, 2023

Hologram, the industry-leading cellular connectivity platform for the Internet of Things, has introduced the next-generation Hyper SIM with network fallback functionality. The global eUICC SIM integrates directly with leading carriers in the United States and Canada, enabling network fallback to maintain device connectivity intelligently. While millions of IoT devices utilize global roaming agreements for cost-effective global access, increasing international connectivity restrictions and specific IoT connectivity requirements, traditional SIMs with roaming profiles no longer suffice for IoT. Next-gen Hyper SIM provides direct access to carriers in the US and Canada, ensuring operator-guaranteed connectivity for global IoT deployments. With native profiles, Hyper SIM provides high-performance IoT connectivity for industrial robotics, video streaming, autonomous drones, and more. In addition to performance, IoT applications such as payment processing, security monitoring, and micromobility, among others, require continuous connectivity resistant to network failures. Therefore, the next-generation Hyper SIM incorporates network fallback, an intelligent profile management agent that switches eUICC profiles automatically when native connectivity is unavailable. With network fallback, Hyper SIMs can connect to high-performance native profiles as their primary connectivity source without compromising the advantages of multi-carrier and route redundancy provided by global roaming profiles. Ben Forgan, Co-Founder and CEO of Hologram, shared, "When we launched Hyper in 2020, we turned connectivity into software, offering the first eUICC IoT global SIM." He added, "We're bringing that innovation to the next level to address the needs of the sophisticated IoT applications we're seeing today. Whether streaming video or autonomous drones, the next generation of Hyper gives connected devices the low latency delivered from native performance with the reliability and flexibility of global roaming they now require." (Source – Cision PR Newswire) About Hologram Hologram empowers innovators worldwide to build the future. The company provides cellular connectivity, software, and support to connect and manage IoT devices anywhere in the world. With its Hyper IoT SIM cards, IoT devices enjoy superior performance backed by eUICC technology designed to last the lifetime of deployments.
