Digi International to Deliver Zero-Touch eSIM for Multi-Carrier Cellular Management and Distributed Edge Visibility
By aligning commercial deployments with GSMA .32 standards, Digi becomes one of the first IoT solution providers to set a benchmark for interoperability and lifecycle governance in distributed networking.
Global eSIM adoption continues to accelerate. Juniper research projects 4.9 billion cellular connections will use eSIMs by 2030, rising from 1.2 billion in 2025. Additionally, a GSMA intelligence study found that 81 percent of enterprises view eSIM as essential to their IoT strategies. These trends highlight the need for validated orchestration platforms that can scale with evolving infrastructure demands.
As enterprises expand across regions and networks, they face increasing challenges in managing devices, data, and multi-carrier connectivity. Digi continues to advance the industry shift toward distributed networking, where visibility, governance, and control can be harmonized across global operations. Digi eSIM plays a pivotal role in this model, enabling some key game-changing capabilities for cellular customers by utilizing a pre-installed "bootstrap" data-plan as part of the management package. For example, customers can:
- Quickly deploy a cellular WAN-only device in the field without manual staging
- Easily switch carriers or carrier rate plans without needing to roll a truck
- Reduce mechanical and theft problems that occur with removable SIMs
- Recover quickly from carrier outages or performance degradation
- Optimize cost and performance, while improving carrier agility
"Reliable, easy-to-manage connectivity continually rises to the top as a critical need for our cellular customers," said Landon Reese, Vice President of Product Management at Digi International. "Using the pre-loaded bootstrap profile for instant out-of-box connectivity, the Digi eSIM accessory supports simplified carrier-agnostic connectivity management and provides a full feature set that delivers on the promise of eSIM."
Digi eSIM supports single pane of glass management via Digi Remote Manager®, extending the capabilities of Digi EX, IX, and TX routers with zero-touch provisioning. Packaged as a rugged 2FF 3-in-1 punchout card and supporting up to eight profiles with remote carrier switching, this accessory enables cost optimization, resilience, security, and simplified lifecycle management — especially for fleets, retail, and critical infrastructure.
This announcement is part of Digi's broader communications strategy leading into Mobile World Congress 2026, where the company will showcase continued innovation in eSIM management.
The new eSIM accessory reflects Digi's commitment to helping customers simplify global IoT deployments and build resilient, future-ready connectivity strategies. By delivering zero-touch eSIM workflows and unified orchestration capabilities, Digi continues to enable enterprises to scale with confidence and unlock new operational efficiencies across their connected ecosystems.
