IoT eSIM Connectivity
Simple, secure IoT eSIM (eUICC) for M2M and industrial devices. Get multi-network roaming, private APN options, VPN-ready remote access, and straightforward provisioning—built for UK and global deployments.
Why iotesim.co.uk
- UK-first coverage with global reach
- Multi-network roaming for resilience
- eUICC remote profile provisioning
- Private APN & VPN-ready connectivity
- Fixed or dynamic IP options
- Usage insights, alerts, and spend control
How it works
- Choose your plan: UK-only, EU/UK, or Global roaming.
- Activate your eSIM profile: We deliver a QR code or SM-DP+ details for supported routers and devices.
- Provision remotely (eUICC): Swap networks or profiles without touching the device.
- Secure access: Use private APN and VPN to reach devices without exposing them to the public internet.
- Monitor & control: Track data usage, set alerts, and manage SIMs at scale.
Built for these use cases
- CCTV & security: Stable uplink and secure remote access.
- EV charging & energy: Always-on connectivity with roaming for field sites.
- Retail & payment terminals: Resilient primary or backup WAN.
- Industrial telemetry & SCADA: Private networking and device whitelisting.
- Asset tracking & sensors: Power-efficient, flexible coverage.
- Routers & gateways: Teltonika, Cradlepoint, Digi, Sierra Wireless, and more.
Why eSIM (eUICC) for IoT
- No more SIM swaps: Update profiles over-the-air.
- Resilience by design: Roam across partner networks for better uptime.
- Lower truck rolls: Fix coverage issues with a profile change, not a site visit.
- Lifecycle control: Activate, suspend, and retire profiles as projects evolve.
Connectivity options
- Dynamic IP + VPN (recommended): Private APN, no inbound exposure, connect via VPN for secure access.
- Fixed private IP: Consistent addressing inside a private network for whitelisting and monitoring.
- Public fixed IP (limited cases): Only for tightly locked-down firewalls or office failover—use strict ACLs and IPS/IDS.
Security best practice
- Private APN + VPN for remote access
- Role-based access and 2FA on management portal
- Device firewalls, outbound rules, and TLS wherever possible
- Regular firmware updates and key rotation
- Logging, alerts, and anomaly detection on usage
Device compatibility
Works with eSIM-capable routers and devices including popular industrial models (e.g., Teltonika RUT series with eSIM-ready variants). Check your device supports eUICC or add an external eUICC module.
Plans (preview)
- UK Roaming: For national deployments needing resilience.
- EU + UK: Cross-border projects with one SKU.
- Global: Multi-region roaming with policy-based steering.

FAQs
What is an IoT eSIM?
An embedded SIM using eUICC that lets you download, switch, and manage carrier profiles remotely without swapping plastic SIMs.
Do I need a private APN?
Not always, but for remote access and security, a private APN with VPN is strongly recommended.
Can I get a fixed IP?
Yes—choose fixed private IP for internal routing, or fixed public IP only for specific, well-secured scenarios.
Will it work in my router?
If your router supports eSIM/eUICC (or an external eUICC module), yes. We can advise per model.
How do I migrate from plastic SIMs?
Start with pilot eSIMs, validate coverage, then use eUICC to roll out profiles—no site visits for swaps.
What about data pooling and alerts?
We support pooled data options and usage alerts to prevent bill shock.
