NExT™ Network

NExT is a global, dedicated IoT network that provides flexible and reliable connectivity. It offers enterprises and IoT service providers throughout the ecosystem seamless roaming coverage and services.

This mobile core network supplies visibility and control over your international cellular IoT or mobile broadband deployment. From a single, user-friendly connectivity dashboard, you can operate and deploy your IoT devices.

With one contract and one simple bill, NExT optimizes your costs no matter where your devices are. It provides the manageability and scalability you need for your global IoT deployment.

• Supporting several profiles preloaded to the SIM and list of IMSI donors
• Change profiles automatically according to predefined rules (location)
• Support IMSI switch for mission-critical use cases
• Remote provisioning management (SM – DP/SR)
• Supports fallback in case the new network is not available
• Option to manually change profile, IMSI or operators via the CMP
• The SIM bootstrap can be defined per customer needs (default NExT)
• SIM FF: plastic, MFF2, iSIM
• Support external integration to the CMP (APIs)
• Multi-IMSI and eUICC multiprofile are supported on the same SIM
• eUICC new profile: After several months of integration, we can support downloading a new profile (per business case)

• eUICC is not a hardware concept. It is a feature concept for managing SIM profiles. An eUICC can host multiple profiles and requires a minimum memory of 512 KB.
• The profile includes the information the MNO needs to enable connectivity. Traditionally, these profiles are locked to the SIM, meaning if you change operators, you must replace the SIM.
• eUICC hosts multiple provider profiles and have space for additional applications (e.g., security features).
• For M2M deployments in which devices are distributed globally in remote locations, coordinating the correct SIM installation and the right time can create logistical challenges. Installing a SIM with an eUICC at the manufacturing stage saves production and distribution costs and inventory since you only need one SKU.

Multi-IMSI allows flexibility and optimized coverage, cellular technologies and costs.

Multi-IMSI is used when a customer wants full support from multiple operators in a country. Some IMSI donors only support a subset of a country’s operators. In these situations, multi-IMSI solves cost and coverage issues.

Another use case is for mission-critical applications in which the SIM will work with other IMSIs in case of IMSI operation failure.

Multi-IMSI supports localization where we have a local IMSI sponsor in our multi-IMSI SIM. This capability enables you to transition to other operators easily where there are permanent roaming restrictions.

eUICC technology, based on a global GSMA-sponsored standard embraced by mobile operators worldwide, is fundamental for IoT. It enables new use cases requiring streamlined logistics for devices to go from factory to field and into operation. eUICC empowers the end user at the end of the line with over-the-air (OTA) provisioning and management of the device’s mobile connection details.

NExT is a provider of one of the industry’s broadest coverage of eUICC or eSIM technology. Customers can switch profiles and localize solutions to address issues with permanent roaming restrictions.
