KUALA LUMPUR, March 4 (Bernama) — NTT Communications Corporation (NTT Com), the information and communications technology (ICT) solutions and international communications business within the NTT group, has began commercial sales of its Active Multi-access SIM, from Jan 31.
The new SIM and associated service will enable diverse Internet of Things (IoT) devices to switch between a network’s main and sub-carriers in the event of network failure, achieving network redundancy with a single SIM on a fully automatic basis without the need to monitor networks or initiate switching on the device terminal side.
The service offers three key benefits, starting with automatic fault detection and carrier switching, both of which are patent pending, and if the communication fails, the applet in the SIM automatically detects the failure, switches to a sub-carrier and then back to the main carrier after a fixed period of time, according to a statement.
The second benefit is compliance with European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standards for compatibility with a wide range of devices using the SIM Toolkit standard, which allows SIM applets to issue commands to these devices.
The third advantage is convenience and operability such as centralised contracts and support; optimised costs; centralised management of lines via portal/ application programming interface (API); as well as enhanced data usage and business building via Smart Data Platform.
Going forward, NTT Com will consider expanding the Active Multi-access SIM service with additional features, such as closed area connections.
The commercial launch of the Active Multi-access SIM follows a successful trial period that began on March 28, 2023, with the service receiving positive endorsements from various clients.
