About the product
The Global IoT eSIM Modules and iSIM Chipsets Market Tracker is a structured market sizing database of worldwide IoT eSIM modules and iSIM chipsets. This product gets updated anually with the most recent data.
In Q2 2024, the cellular IoT module embedded with eSIM/iSIM Shipment grew 12 % . The penetration Cellular IoT modules embedded with eSIM and iSIM reached 18 % of the 3.6 billion active global cellular IoT connections. This data indicates the growing demand for flexible, fast, and efficient connectivity solutions in the new age of cellular IoT. This database provides a quarterly look at the shipments of 35 companies providing cellular IoT modules embedded with eSIM/iSIM for IoT deployments. The database provides insight into the shipment of modules capable of eSIM and the chipset of iSIM. The database does not include the activation data of the eSIMs and iSIMs.
Definitions
Cellular IoT module: A cellular IoT module is a hardware component that enables IoT devices to connect to the internet using cellular networks. It comprises a cellular modem, a microcontroller unit (MCU), and embedded software that facilitate seamless communication between devices and the Internet. These modules utilize various generations of cellular technology, including 2G, 3G, 4G, or 5G, and Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies such as Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) and LTE-M.
Cellular IoT chipset: A cellular IoT chipset refers to a baseband processor embedded in a smart device (either directly or via a module) that enables and manages the device’s connectivity. It is designed specifically to allow IoT devices to connect to cellular networks.It is based on the 3GPP architecture, such as 4G, 5G, LTE-M, and NB-IoT
eSIM: An eSIM is an embedded SIM card. It’s a replacement for—or alternative to—the physical SIM card that connects modem to a mobile network, and the eSIM is a lot smaller than a physical SIM card.
iSIM: An iSIM is an Integrated SIM. It is much smaller and offers more security than physical SIM cards or embedded SIMs. The iSIM enables devices to connect to a cellular network without needing a physical SIM card or soldered eSIM in a printed circuit board (PCB). Instead of using a separate physical SIM card, the iSIM technology embeds the SIM features directly into the cellular IoT chipset, allowing it to connect to the cellular network
SoftSIM: A softSIM is a virtual SIM card installed in a device’s memory, functioning similarly to an eSIM but without the need for a physical secure element. It allows for device connectivity to cellular networks entirely through software.
Physical SIM/uSIM: A physical SIM, also known as a uSIM, is a removable chip that must be physically installed in a device to connect it to a cellular network.
