A Single SKU. On one SIM. Infinite Possibilities
Every fleet manager, OEM, or security provider operating in Africa knows the pain: roaming SIMs that fail at borders, inflated data bills, and devices going offline at critical moments. Whether it’s a dashcam, a push-to-talk radio, or a point-of-sale terminal, reliable IoT connectivity in Africa has always been difficult to scale.
That’s why CommsCloud developed the Cloud Connect SIM — a single SKU IoT SIM card built for Africa’s realities. With one SIM, you gain multi-network, cross-border coverage, autonomous switching, and transparent pricing. It’s not just a SIM; it’s the backbone of your business uptime and it’s a gateway to unmatched coverage, flexibility, and control, all powered by floLIVE’s advanced, cloud-native IoT infrastructure.
Why Traditional IoT SIMs Fail in Africa
Dead zones & dropped networks: Roaming SIMs only cover a limited number of mobile networks, creating blind spots when assets move across countries.
Roaming costs that crush margins: High-data deployments like in-vehicle cameras or PTT radios see costs soar 50–70% under roaming.
Complex installs & misconfigurations: Too often, devices are deployed incorrectly in the field, leaving operators wondering “why doesn’t the SIM work?” when the issue is firmware or APN setup.
No local resilience: When roaming agreements change or networks fail, devices can remain offline for weeks.
Africa’s scale and complexity demand a SIM designed from the ground up — not a retrofitted roaming solution.
Single SKU SIM: One SIM, All Networks
The CommsCloud Cloud Connect SIM solves Africa’s toughest connectivity challenges:
One SIM, Multiple Networks – Auto-switches to the strongest local operator.
Cross-Border Ready – Seamless handovers from Zambia to South Africa, or JHB to DR Congo and beyond.
Always-On Resilience – Zero-downtime failover ensures cameras continue to stream and radios remain live.
OEM-Friendly – eUICC, iSIM, or plastic SIM — one SKU, no integration chaos.
Future-Proofed – Local breakout PGWs, LPWA compliant, and 5G ready.
Smart Support – IoT-savvy experts who understand both SIM and device stacks.
SIM Applet Management for Intelligent Connectivity
At the heart of this solution lies floLIVE’s multi-IMSI SIM applet technology. Each SIM can hold and manage up to 10 IMSI profiles, enabling:
Autonomous Switching – The SIM decides the best IMSI based on coverage, quality, or commercial rules.
Firmware-Integrated Reliability – Working hand-in-hand with OEMs to embed the right settings directly into the device.
Future-Proof Flexibility – Profiles can be added or reconfigured OTA (over-the-air) without field visits.
The result? Smarter devices that self-heal connectivity issues and adapt dynamically to local conditions.
Remote SIM Provisioning (RSP): Ready for Any Form Factor
The future of IoT is eSIM and iSIM. CommsCloud supports Remote SIM Provisioning (RSP) across all form factors, giving enterprises the freedom to:
Deploy Globally, Manage Locally – Download new operator profiles remotely, without requiring device access.
Reduce Logistics Costs – No need to stockpile multiple SIM SKUs.
Stay Regulatory Compliant – Align with country-specific localisation requirements while managing everything centrally.
This ensures enterprises are ready not only for today’s deployments but also for tomorrow’s growth.
