Telit Cinterion Partners With Thales to Enhance Its IoT eSIM Provisioning Services
27 Fevereiro 2024 - 5:00AM
Business Wire
- Telit Cinterion, an end-to-end IoT solutions enabler,
integrated Thales Instant Connect (TIC) services in its IoT modules
for remote eSIM activation.
- Comprised of a Thales eSIM with integrated TIC client, the
solution enables instant worldwide activation of IoT eSIMs. It is
extremely useful for industrial devices such as smart meters,
security systems, healthcare equipment, and payment systems.
- Aidon, a leading provider of advanced smart metering and smart
grid solutions, is the first customer to deploy Telit Cinterion
eSIM provisioning services with TIC.
Telit Cinterion IoT modules featuring Thales Instant
Connect can be remotely activated for cellular connectivity
at the time of device installation or during in-field operation.
This streamlines IoT deployments as it simplifies supply chain,
device installation and maintenance, helping to keep IoT devices
connected anywhere, and at all times. Aidon, a leader in smart
metering solutions, is the first to benefit from this partnership
and solution, deploying IoT modules and initial connectivity from a
single vendor, Telit Cinterion.

By integrating Thales technology into Telit Cinterion modules,
enterprises can enjoy instant out-of-the-box connectivity
activation irrespective of the grid of available mobile networks.
The collaboration between the two companies on this innovative
solution enables them to get their IoT connected products in the
market quickly, allowing them to reap the benefits of digital
transformation that is at the core of the IoT promise.
The way the solution works is that, at the end of device
production or when it is deployed in the field, the Telit Cinterion
module uses the initial connectivity provided by Thales Instant
Connect, to download the target local connectivity from the network
operators selected by the IoT service provider. This allows device
manufacturers and service providers to postpone selecting a
connectivity provider until after the device is manufactured and
throughout the deployment process. It can also be used during
in-field operation, enabling deployed devices to stay connected
throughout unexpected cellular network outages. This flexibility is
particularly beneficial in situations where the devices are
deployed across different regions or countries, as it allows for
seamless integration with local network operators.
“Helping our enterprise customers to quickly launch and monetize
IoT is our mission at Telit Cinterion. Adding the Thales eSIM to
our modules in combination with our SIM provisioning and global
MVNO services to streamline the final connectivity provider
selection is a game changer in the industry. This powerful solution
delivers unparalleled adaptability to changing circumstances and
simplifies supply chain and logistics because it is based on a
single eSIM with Thales Instant Connect, which can be shipped
anywhere in the world,” said Manish Watwani, Chief Marketing and
Product Officer at Telit Cinterion.
“The IoT eSIM solution is an important innovation, ensuring
production flexibility and connectivity of our smart meters, even
in rural areas, and all without the need for physical handling of
SIMs. The solution provides a true operator selection and
provisioning at any stage of the product lifetime. It is improving
our ability to get smart meters connected, stay connected and adapt
to new metering as-a-service business models,” said Petri
Ounila, Director, IoT Devices, Aidon.
“Thales aims to support IoT adopters and streamline device
deployment with our eSIM with initial connectivity via Thales
Instant Connect service. This simplifies and accelerates large
scale IoT deployments for device makers, benefiting all
stakeholders in the value chain. Thales is pleased to work with
Telit Cinterion to support its success in cellular connectivity and
speed up device deployment,” said Guillaume Lafaix, Senior Vice
President Mobile Connectivity Solutions at Thales.
