SoftSIM
Software SIM
Description
Monogoto SoftSIM provides cellular connectivity without requiring a physical SIM card, making it an ideal wireless solution for lightweight or space-constrained IoT devices. It is particularly suitable for remote provisioning, large-scale production, and scenarios where simplifying logistics and hardware integration is essential. We offer flexible pricing, which you can check out by following this link.
What is SoftSIM?
SoftSIM (Software SIM) is a virtual SIM solution that enables cellular connectivity without the need for a physical SIM card or embedded UICC hardware. Instead, SIM credentials (such as IMSI and authentication keys) are securely downloaded and stored within the device's non-volatile memory either during manufacturing or over proprietary interfaces.
Features
Manage SoftSIM profiles through Monogoto's cloud-based self-service platform.
Simplifies device design by eliminating the need for a physical SIM slot or embedded SIM chip.
Enables remote provisioning of SIM credentials during manufacturing or via secure proprietary interfaces..
Integrates easily with third-party cloud services through Monogoto's robust API.
Monogoto secure IoT SIM works on 550+ cellular networks in 180 countries, offering all network technologies. You can check our coverage by following this link.
Cloud-based private network with hybrid local-breakout. Radio and CPE agnostic solution supports CBRS and any band.
Technical Specifications
Profile Storage: SIM credentials are stored securely in the device's non-volatile memory (e.g., flash). Some implementations may use secure storage such as TPM or Secure Enclave, depending on the device architecture.
Hardware Requirements: SoftSIM relies on the device's baseband or host processor to emulate SIM functionality. No dedicated SIM slot or UICC chip is required, reducing component count and device complexity.
Power Efficiency: SoftSIM is optimized for power efficiency to minimize energy consumption and extend battery life in battery-powered devices.
