Aeris adds SGP.32 support to IoT eSIM Orchestrator. Fri, 16th Oct 2026 (Today) Aeris has launched a new version of its eSIM Orchestrator for the IoT Accelerator platform, adding support for the GSMA SGP.32 standard for remote management of IoT eSIMs. The launch also includes Single SKU eSIM and Aeris eIM as a Service, expanding the tools available to Mobile Network Operators, device makers and enterprise customers managing connected devices across multiple markets. Aeris said its IoT Accelerator platform now manages 110 million IoT devices, including 44 million eSIMs. According to the company, eSIMs now make up more than 40 per cent of its installed base, compared with 12 per cent across the wider market. The update also broadens support beyond SGP.32 to environments that already use the GSMA's SGP.02 machine-to-machine eSIM standard and the SGP.22 consumer eSIM standard. A single connection to IoT Accelerator gives customers access to 30 operators with pre-integrated support across all three generations of eSIM standards, Aeris said. Profile management The new eSIM Orchestrator is designed to automate profile management through policies and event-based controls, rather than requiring operators to manage devices one by one. Customers can use those controls to determine which local profile a device uses, when it downloads that profile, what the device is allowed to do and what happens if a process fails, according to Aeris. Single SKU eSIM is aimed at companies shipping devices internationally. Aeris said the model allows Original Equipment Manufacturers to build one hardware version for global distribution, while enterprises can assign the appropriate local operator profile after deployment instead of creating separate market-specific variants. Aeris is also offering a managed remote eSIM service through eIM as a Service, integrated into IoT Accelerator for SGP.32 profile switching. Customers can also use their own eIM supplier, with Aeris naming Thales, G+D, Kigen and IDEMIA among supported vendors. Jon Connet, Chief Product Officer at Aeris, linked the changes to broader shifts in connected systems. "The future of IoT is increasingly tied to the rise of Physical AI, as connected vehicles, machines and infrastructure become more intelligent and autonomous," he said. "That evolution demands connectivity that can adapt as devices move across markets and networks and requirements change. Our new IoT eSIM capabilities build on Aeris' proven IoT platform leadership to make that possible at global scale." Aeris is targeting sectors where devices must operate across borders and networks without manual intervention, including autonomous vehicles, industrial robotics and smart infrastructure. In those settings, eSIM management has become more important as companies try to balance roaming arrangements with local network access and regulatory demands. Operator view About 70 per cent of device attachments on the platform each month occur on a partner network rather than through roaming, according to Aeris. The company added that devices using its platform attach in more than 200 countries each month and that it serves more than 7,000 enterprise customers. Orange Business, one of the operator groups working with Aeris, described the move to SGP.32 as more than a technical change. "The transition to IoT eSIM based on SGP.32 is not simply a technical upgrade; it's a strategic enabler for enterprises managing connected devices across markets. Our collaboration with Aeris sets a strong benchmark for how operators and platform partners can deliver global eSIM orchestration in a way that's practical, standards-compliant and built for the realities of global IoT," said Elisabeth Reille, Executive Vice President - Smart Mobility Services at Orange Business. In a second statement, Connet focused on the operational challenge of deploying eSIM at scale. "For OEMs, MNOs and enterprises, the challenge isn't changing a SIM profile on one device; it's doing it reliably across thousands or millions of devices," he said. "SGP.32 provides the foundation, but orchestration makes it work at global scale. Aeris enables customers to use the same IoT connectivity service across networks with local SIM profiles, combining the flexibility of roaming with the advantages of local connectivity." The product update also comes amid broader competition over how IoT providers manage connectivity as embedded SIM usage grows. Aeris said its platform is growing at more than 20 per cent year on year, faster than the market overall. It also cited industry recognition from Frost & Sullivan and Counterpoint Research as evidence of its position in the sector. Aeris added that its IoT Watchtower service can provide network-level security as an optional layer alongside connectivity management. The combined offering is intended to give customers control over connectivity policies, profile switching and security as fleets of devices move across countries and network environments. Aeris serves sectors including connected vehicles, robotics, utilities, logistics, medical devices and manufacturing, and said it connects more than 115 million devices worldwide, including 45 million connected vehicles.

Aeris and Telna Partner to Eliminate Global IoT Connectivity Fragmentation, Expanding IoT Accelerator Coverage in Brazil TMCnet News [October 06, 2026] | / | Aeris and Telna Partner to Eliminate Global IoT Connectivity Fragmentation, Expanding IoT Accelerator Coverage in Brazil Aeris, the secure connectivity platform for Physical AI and intelligent IoT devices, today announced a strategic partnership with Telna, a provider of managed global network infrastructure for cellular connectivity. The partnership combines the Aeris IoT Accelerator (IoTA) platform and Aeris IoT Watchtower(R) security suite with Telna's cloud-native core network to eliminate the connectivity fragmentation that slows multinational IoT deployments, starting with Brazil. Telna joins a growing community of Tier-1 operators on IoT Accelerator, giving enterprises, OEMs, and managed service providers (MSPs) a simpler way to scale, secure and manage IoT programs across borders. "Multinational enterprises shouldn't have to rebuild their IoT program every time they enter a new country," said Mark Cratsenberg, Chief Commercial Officer,Aeris. "Welcoming Telna to the IoT Accelerator community gives our customers compliant, low-latency access to Brazil through the same platform and security they already use worldwide. It's another step toward truly borderless connectivity for Physical AI and intelligent, mission-critical IoT." Unlocking Brazil's High-Growth IoT Verticals Brazil restricts permanent roaming, which has long forced global enterprises to negotiate separate local agreements or run parallel connectivity stacks. With Telna's local IMSI profiles in Brazil and 800+ network agreements across 200+ countries and territories, Aeris customers can now reach Brazil's fast-growing agribusiness, industrial IoT, healthcare and automotive markets on compliant local connectivity, managed alongside the rest of their global fleet. Zero-Touch eSIM and Intelligent Local Breakout The joint solution delivers zero-touch eSIM provisioning, so devices connect in market without SIM swaps or country-by-country onboarding. Telna's geo-redundant Points of Presence, combined with Aeris' global Tier-1 operator agreements, enable intelligent local breakout that keeps mission-critical traffic close to the device, sharply lowering latency for autonomous systems, connected vehicles and edge AI. IoT Accelerator is also the only IoT platform with security monitoring and protection fully integrated into the cellular network, giving every device zero-trust protection from day one. "Telna built a cloud-native core so connectivity could move at the speed of our partners' businesses, and local IMSIs are the foundation of making that connectivity compliant for the long term," said Gregory Gundelfinger, Founder and CEO, Telna. "Together with Aeris, we give enterprises and OEMs a single, secure path to scale in one of the world's most dynamic IoT markets. Brazil is where we start, but it is not where we stop. Telna will keep bringing new local profiles onto IoT Accelerator so their customers can expand into restricted markets as fast as their business demands and operate there for the full life of the device." One Interface, Lower Total Cost of Ownership By consolidating connectivity, security and management into a single interface on IoT Accelerator, the partnership lets customers enter new markets without new carrier contracts or device redesigns. It also counters the cost inflation in international markets that erodes competitiveness and total cost of ownership.
