Improve global deployments through optimized eSIM workflows, unified orchestration, and improved operations management
Digi International®, a global leader in cellular connectivity solutions, today announced the release of a SGP.32 compatible eSIM Accessories to integrate comprehensive SIM management into your portfolio of connected devices.
By aligning commercial deployments with the GSMA .32 standards, Digi becomes one of the first IoT solution providers to set the standard for interoperability and lifecycle governance in distributed networks.
Global eSIM adoption continues to increase. Juniper research predicts that 4.9 billion mobile connections will use eSIMs by 2030, up from 1.2 billion in 2025. Additionally, a GSMA Intelligence study found that 81 percent of companies view eSIM as essential to their IoT strategies. These trends highlight the need for validated orchestration platforms that can scale with evolving infrastructure needs.
As companies expand across regions and networks, they face increasing challenges in managing devices, data and multi-carrier connectivity. Digi continues to drive the industry’s shift toward distributed networks where visibility, governance and control can be harmonized across global operations. Digi eSIM plays a central role in this model, enabling mobile customers some important, game-changing features through the use of a pre-installed “bootstrap” data plan as part of the management package. For example, customers can:
- Deploy a cellular-only WAN device quickly without manual on-premises staging
- Easily change carriers or carrier rate plans without having to roll a truck
- Reduce mechanical and theft issues that occur with removable SIM cards
- Recover quickly from network outages or performance degradation
- Optimize costs and performance while improving carrier flexibility
“Reliable, easy-to-manage connectivity is becoming increasingly important to our mobile customers.” said Landon Reese, vice president of product management at Digi International.
“The Digi eSIM accessory leverages the pre-installed bootstrap profile for instant out-of-box connectivity, supports simplified, carrier-agnostic connectivity management, and offers a complete feature set that delivers on the promise of eSIM.”
Digital eSIM supports single pane of glass management via Digi Remote Manager® and extends the capabilities of Digi EX, IX and TX routers with zero-touch deployment. Packaged as a rugged 2FF 3-in-1 punchout card, this accessory supports up to eight profiles with remote carrier switching. It enables cost optimization, resiliency, security and simplified lifecycle management – especially for fleets, retail and critical infrastructure.
This announcement is part of Digi’s broader communications strategy ahead of Mobile World Congress 2026, where the company will showcase continued innovation in eSIM management.
The new eSIM accessories reflect Digi’s commitment to helping customers simplify global IoT deployments and develop resilient, future-ready connectivity strategies. By delivering Zero-touch eSIM With workflows and unified orchestration capabilities, Digi continues to enable organizations to scale securely and unlock new operational efficiencies across their connected ecosystems.
