SPTel, a joint venture company of ST Engineering and SP Group, has launched the SPTel Multi-network SIM card that can connect to three major Singapore-based telco network providers in one SIM. This new product will help organizations to enjoy telco diversity without the need to change SIM cards, reducing the hassle of managing multiple SIM cards for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) projects. This solution will provide organizations with constant and reliable network connectivity, allowing them to stay connected anytime, anywhere, with built-in back-up coverage.

The SPTel Multi-network SIM card is expected to support Smart Nation initiatives in industries that require automation to reduce manpower costs and increase productivity, such as logistics, automotive, connected health, video analytics, EV charging, and building maintenance. These industries support critical functions and require high availability for their connectivity, making the multi-network SIM card an ideal solution. The single dashboard of the SPTel Multi-network SIM card will simplify after-sales care, with a single point of contact for support and billing.

Heng Kwee Tong, Vice President of Engineering and Customer Solutions at SPTel, said, “We are proud to introduce the SPTel Multi-network SIM, a solution that will enhance mobile network diversity for critical applications in Singapore which is in line with our promise of delivering network reliability with an edge. This product can affordably and conveniently ease operations in various projects with its auto failover features and single dashboard for monitoring. The SPTel Multi-network SIM is a step towards a more digital future, but more importantly, it harnesses the potential to better the lives of people through the promise of stronger, more reliable connectivity. For instance, the SIM is currently deployed to provide more reliable connectivity to thousands of lifts that utilize IoT infrastructure for component monitoring and predictive maintenance.”

With the launch of the SPTel Multi-network SIM card, Singapore is set to move forward on its digital roadmap with convenience, as the product can potentially transform industries and bring benefits to businesses and individuals alike.
