Soft SIM or “virtual SIM,” is an entirely software-based solution that resides within a device’s memory and processor or modem and eliminates the need for a physical SIM card. Available at a fraction of the cost of a physical SIM card, Soft SIM is hardware agnostic, leveraging pre-existing resources on a device such as a radio module or microcontroller and maximizes design flexibility lowering the cost barrier for device makers, allowing them to extend powerful connectivity to smaller and smaller devices.
“This solution is the ideal answer for IoT device designers and manufacturers who don’t have a high-security demand and who are looking to lower their bill of materials, production and operating costs,” says Maor Efrati, CTO of Monogoto. We are delighted to partner with Actinius to make this service available to our customers and to reduce the complexity and price of large IoT projects.”
“Launching our SoftSIM for the nRF9160, in partnership with Monogoto, showcases our commitment to practical, flexible and scalable IoT solutions,” says Alex Tsamakos, Founder and CTO, Actinius. “The flexibility of Monogoto has been crucial in making this happen.”
