Gemalto’s ODC platform is fully compliant with GSMA
standards, and can be used in conjunction with any consumer devices
featuring eSIM technology.
·
SoftBank users can now enjoy direct internet
connectivity for the latest eSIM-enabled smart watches, fitness
wearables, and many other mobile devices that traditionally relied on a
smartphone for connection.
In the future, eSIM will become the default
identification module for all cellular IoT devices. Together with an
ODC platform, mobile service providers can easily provision
connectivity for these IoT devices and remotely manage their
connections.Gemalto has delivered eSIM subscription management servers to mobile
network operators across different regions, from North America to
Europe and Asia – more than 50 subscription management solutions for
both consumer and machine-to-machine (M2M) applications have been
successfully deployed so far.
For the consumer space, our partnerships with operators include
Softbank and
Telefonica, as well as original equipment manufacturers (OEMs)
like Samsung,
Limmex,
Microsoft, and
Lenovo. In particular, Gemalto participated in the launch of
Samsung’s Gear smart watches through
TIM Italy and
Orange France.
With the smart devices, mobile operators need an open platform
regulated by GSMA for OEMs. Since the inception of eSIM, Gemalto is
committed to achieving this industry vision. Today,
Gemalto is the only fully GSMA SAS-SM1
certified supplier providing a proven, robust and secure environment
for commercial launches, which involve remote SIM provisioning
technology.
1The GSMA’s Security Accreditation
Scheme (SAS) enables MNOs to assess the security of their UICC &
eSIM suppliers, and of their eSIM Subscription Management (SM) service
providers.
