What is an IoT card? What role does the Internet of Things card play in connecting everything?

1. What is the Internet of Things card?

The Internet of Things card is provided by the three major operators of China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom to meet the needs of intelligent hardware networking and the requirements of the Internet of Things industry for equipment. The traffic card required for network management is similar in hardware and appearance to an ordinary SIM card. It can realize communication and dialogue between people and objects and objects and objects through SIM cards, sensor QR codes, etc. installed on various objects, and connected to wireless networks through interfaces. The IoT card has basic communication capabilities, including GPRS communication capabilities and SMS communication capabilities, which can fully meet the needs of different group customers; the IoT card can query terminal status and provide customers with power-on/off information, terminal location information, terminal GPRS online, offline, IP , APN and other information query: The IoT card also has functions such as accounting information query, business statistical analysis and flexible billing.

2. What is the use of IoT cards?

The IoT card mainly plays the role of data transmission. Simply put, the role of the IoT card is to enable enterprise devices that currently cannot be directly connected to the network but require a network or require a large amount of traffic to be used online. . Nowadays, device networking is nothing more than "WiFi networking", "4G IoT" and "IoT card networking". For industry hardware equipment, IoT networking is more convenient and cheaper. In fact, most of us have already dealt with IoT cards, but we just didn’t realize it.

For example, when riding an exclusive bicycle, there is an IoT card in each exclusive bicycle, which handles the positioning, unlocking, and unlocking of the bicycle.

For example, children's watches for children can achieve precise positioning and transmit information in a timely manner, allowing parents to keep track of their children's whereabouts at any time and avoid the occurrence of lost children.

For example, when we drive out, the vehicle-mounted smart devices can diagnose the vehicle condition, perform voice recognition, security positioning, traffic information query, etc., making our travels full of wisdom!

3. Summary

Nowadays, there are many IoT card agency platforms on the market, but there are still very few truly powerful IoT card agency platforms. The fundamental reason is the Internet of Things. The card market is imperfect and mixed, but China Telecom's IoT card provides IoT connectivity services to many small and medium-sized enterprises. In addition, relying on its own strength and support from technical personnel, it has independently developed an IoT card management platform to help corporate customers. Provide IoT card batch management, recharge, inquiry and other services, open up a platform for long-term value-added income for enterprises, reduce costs and increase efficiency for enterprises, and achieve win-win cooperation.
