Unmanaged
If your solution is single site and data hungry (think primary connectivity in an office), this is the better, more cost- effective option.
Dynamic or Static IP addresses.
Dynamic is the standard for most SIM cards and also the most cost-effective.
-
Static, if a standard dynamic IP won’t cut it, we’ll set you up with a public or private static IP one, crucial if you’re hosting your own server, running hosted applications or need to access devices remotely.
Networks and Roaming
Unsteered multi-network
One SIM, multiple networks. The devices these SIMs power will find the network with the best signal, wherever they go, making unsteered multi-network SIMs easy to deploy and extra resilient.
They’re best for critical applications, large scale deployments, or solutions that move cross country.
Single network
One SIM, one network. Great for single site, non-critical deployments
Connectivity technology
NB-IoT
Perfect for low data solutions that need to retain as much battery life as possible, NB-IoT has a huge range and draws minimal power.
LTE-M

4G
4G is the go-to option for data-hungry, low latency applications, like wireless broadband.
5G
Blazing fast speeds, ultra reliable, and the ability to connect 1 million devices per km2—5G is the most powerful connectivity around, even out performing fixed line performance.
Data plans
Unlimited
One flat cost, absolutely unlimited data. Best for data-hungry solutions that’ll chew through data fast.
Aggregated
A single pool of data that multiple SIMs share. Great if you’ve got multiple sites with varying usage to connect
Instanet
A smart tariff that’ll automatically adjust data tiers according to your usage each month—great if your usage will vary significantly and you want to
avoid overage.
Per unit
If you can predict exactly how much data your solution will use, you can opt to pay by the bit.
Pre-paid
Buy a block of data and just top up when a SIM has used its limit. This one is specifically designed for temporary deployments.
Connection type
Internet access
Like typical wired broadband, your device will access the internet via the most resilient providers.
Custom Access Point Name or APN
Via a custom APN, we’ll segregate your traffic away from slow public pathways. That means a faster, more secure, completely customisable service —perfect for corporate networks.
