IoT Connect Podcast – Breaking Barriers in IoT Connectivity with TEAL’s OpenEIM SGP.32 Platform
The world of the Internet of Things (IoT) is on the brink of a significant transformation, and TEAL is at the forefront, leading the charge with its groundbreaking new SGP.32 eSIM tech—OpenEIM. During a recent episode of IoT Connect, Robby Hamblet, CEO and founder of TEAL, provided an exciting overview of this innovative eIM (eUICC remote Identity Manager) a free and open approach to eSIM management that promises to change the landscape of IoT connectivity.
The Exciting World of eSIM and OpenEIM
At the heart of this conversation was the buzz surrounding SGP.32 and OpenEIM—TEAL’s orchestration component for the eSIM IoT remote manager. Traditionally, IoT devices relied on complex and often restrictive eSIM management standards, such as SGP.22 or SGP.02. OpenEIM is designed to simplify this landscape, offering a free and open system that lowers barriers, increases interoperability, and facilitates seamless integration with any network, anywhere in the world.
A Game Changer in eSIM Management
The essence of OpenEIM is its commitment to openness and freedom. Unlike other platforms that lock users into specific ecosystems, OpenEIM empowers IoT Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) to fully control and customize their connectivity experience. It’s designed to enhance user experience by eliminating intermediary control and enabling direct relationships between device users and their networks.
Bringing Your Own SIM and Bring Your Own Carrier (BYOS and BYOC)
A standout feature of OpenEIM is its support for the “Bring Your Own SIM” concept. Many users are already familiar with bringing their own SIMs when activating smartphones. Now, OpenEIM extends this capability to the IoT world, allowing clients to use the SIMs included with their devices. TEAL ensures that customers can activate any compatible carriers, breaking down traditional barriers and offering unprecedented flexibility.
