Why SGP.32 matters

A new standard for
global IoT connectivity

The landscape of cellular IoT connectivity is undergoing a profound transformation. At the heart of this evolution is SGP.32, the latest Remote SIM Provisioning (RSP) standard developed by the GSMA, designed specifically to support constrained IoT devices and overcome the limitations of earlier standards.

Designed specifically
for IoT

SGP.32 addresses many of the limitations of its predecessors, SGP.02 / SGP.22 and introduces a new architecture designed to better support constrained IoT devices.

The evolution of Remote SIM Provisioning

Remote SIM Provisioning has revolutionised how enterprises manage cellular connectivity. From removable SIM cards to eSIM and iSIM, new mechanisms were required to manage SIM profiles remotely.

A hybrid approach for modern IoT environments

How Eseye's SGP.32 architecture works in practice

Device Equipped with eSIM and IoT Profile Assistant (IPA)

A large, bold navy blue number 1, inspired by sgp.32 esim design elements, is followed by a small pink square dot on a light gray background.

The device contains an eUICC capable of hosting multiple profiles and an IoT Profile Assistant to manage local policy and dynamic profile management.

Profile Request

The image shows a large dark blue number 2 followed by a small pink square on a light gray background, subtly referencing the sgp.32 esim standard.

The IoT Remote Manager (eIM) asks the SM-DP+ for a new or updated profile. The eIM decides when to trigger this request based on device telemetry, connectivity policy, or business logic, and can orchestrate large-scale profile deployments.

Profile Preparation, and Secure Installation

A large, bold navy blue number 3 followed by a pink square, referencing sgp.32 esim, positioned on a light gray background.

The SM-DP+ prepares and encrypts the profile and securely pushes the link for the eUICC profile to the IPA.

Profile Download

A large, bold navy blue number 4 is followed by a small pink square on a light gray background, subtly inspired by the structured simplicity of sgp.32 esim design elements.

The IPA pulls the new profile down from the SM-DP+. The eIM oversees this exchange, ensures the right profile is targeted, and confirms successful delivery.

Profile Activation and Lifecycle Management

A large, bold number 5 in dark blue is followed by a small pink square, referencing sgp.32 esim, both set against a light gray background.

The IPA activates the new profile on the eUICC based on predefined rules. Meanwhile, the IoT Remote Manager (eIM) continues to manage the profile’s lifecycle remotely, handling operations such as enabling, disabling, or deleting profiles and monitoring connectivity status across devices.

Common questions about SGP.32 and deployment

SGP .32 FAQ

What is SGP.32?

SGP.32 is the new GSMA RSP standard for IoT eSIM / eUICC, designed specifically for the Internet of Things. It combines the benefits of earlier eSIM/M2M /consumer eSIM standards (like SGP.02 and SGP.22) to enable remote control of operator profiles without requiring physical SIM swaps or user interaction.

Is Eseye already offering SGP.32 solutions?

Yes. Eseye is providing “SGP.32 readiness” through its eSIM / eUICC connectivity solutions. The Infinity IoT Platform™ and AnyNet+ eSIM service are fully compliant now with SGP.32.

What does “transitioning to SGP.32” involve? What do I need to do?

Here are some of the things enterprises need to consider:

  • Ensure your hardware / devices support eUICC and required protocols (e.g. remote profile download, BIP or similar over-the-air management).
  • Validate that your current modems/firmware can handle OTA profile switching.
  • Plan for updating device firmware if needed.
  • Map out which operators / networks you’ll need in each region and is a SGP.32 profile available to support connectivity there.
  • Consider how fallback / bootstrap profiles will work.
  • Work with Eseye’s experts / technical support to get guidance and help. Eseye offers services such as a free device assessment to test readiness.

I already use an existing AnyNet+ SIM card (ES7xxx and below). Will I need to replace physical SIMs or change device hardware?

If you are using an older AnyNet SIM (ES7xxx or below), you will need to swap it for the latest AnyNet+ SGP.32-compatible SIM card.

Most AnyNet+ eUICC SIMs are already multi-profile and can localize OTA, so in many cases you will not need to change your device hardware or connectivity setup. For confirmation, please speak with your Account Manager about your specific deployment.

Before deploying the new SIM, test it in your device to confirm compatibility and proper functionality. This step helps ensure the SIM card operates as intended within your device hardware.

When should I consider moving over to an SGP.32 solution?

  1. Is your device SGP.32 ready within your device and application environment?
  2. Are there enough profiles available? A sufficient number of Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) must have IoT profiles available for localisation, enabling practical deployment at scale.

If your device already has an eUICC (i.e. supports remote profiling) and supports required SGP.32 protocol, you may be able to migrate without hardware changes (refer to one of Eseye’s IoT Specialists for more information).

However, for devices that only support older SIM standards or that lack remote profile management, hardware replacement or upgrade will be required.

How does Eseye ensure connectivity continuity / fallback?

Eseye’s platform supports switching between many mobile networks (800+ networks in 190+ countries). The infrastructure is designed to allow automatic / remote switching to maintain connectivity, even if a primary operator profile fails. This minimizes downtime for globally deployed IoT devices.

What are the benefits of moving to SGP.32?

Some of the key benefits that SGP.32 offers are:

  • Ship one SKU globally (no multiple region-specific SIM types)
  • Lower logistics and manufacturing complexity
  • Remote profile management: add/remove/switch operator profiles without physical intervention
  • Bring Your Own Carrier (BYOC) if you have an existing arrangement and access to a profile
  • Improved flexibility and faster deployment in new regions
  • Better resilience through fallback / bootstrap profiles.

Are there any compatibility issues / constraints?

Yes, potential constraints include:

  • Device modems / firmware must support eUICC and remote profile management protocols.
  • Some existing older devices may not be upgradable to full SGP.32 compatibility.
  • You may need to test OTA functionality, firmware behaviour, and edge cases (e.g. network transitions, roaming, profile switching) in your own deployment scenario.
  • Your device must use a global APN, not one tied to a specific operator. If not, you must be able to remotely update the APN on the device. Eseye solves this by offering a global APN that works across all its partner networks in the AnyNet Federation.

Can I select the carrier I want?

Eseye offers a managed service to simplify everything to do with connectivity. We will work with you to ensure the correct carrier and fallback options are selected. If you have an existing carrier profile and agreement that you would like to use in addition, this can be explored with one of our IoT Specialists.

Does using an alternative or fallback profile incur extra cost?

This depends on your provider and plan terms. Whichever profile you’re using is highly likely to incur an additional cost.

We recommend getting in touch to discuss your particular use case.

 

Can I transfer my SGP.32 SIM to Eseye?

Yes. Our IoT specialists can work with you and your teams to facilitate a smooth transfer. Get in touch to discuss your requirements.
