Built with the silicon you already use.

EdgeUplink is the connective tissue between two partners: the silicon in your IoT product and the network it talks to. We pre-integrate with both so your firmware doesn't have to. Featured silicon partner: Nordic Semiconductor. Backbone network partner: iBasis.

Nordic Semiconductor — nRF9160 cellular IoT.

EdgeUplink ships pre-integrated with the Nordic SDK. Every Nordic nRF9160 DK comes with an EdgeUplink eSIM pre-loaded with 10 MB of free development data. Activate, build, then move the same eSIM to a production plan — no SIM swap, no firmware re-flash.

nRF9160 SiP

The smallest cert'd cellular IoT module — globally connected by EdgeUplink.

  • 10 MB free dev data on every Nordic nRF9160 DK eSIM
  • Drop-in nRF Connect SDK library — no AT-command logic to write
  • GSMA SGP.22 eUICC — operator profile changes over the air
  • LTE-M + NB-IoT across 190+ countries, 700+ partner networks
  • Tested on Thingy:91 + nRF9160-DK reference designs

iBasis — the Tier-1 wholesale carrier behind EdgeUplink.

EdgeUplink's global cellular reach is built on the iBasis IoT network. For 30+ years, iBasis has operated Tier-1 wholesale interconnect between the world's mobile operators. EdgeUplink eSIMs ride that fabric — one SIM, every network, with operator profiles re-provisioned over the air per GSMA SGP.22.

  • 700+ partner networks across 190+ countries — global coverage out of the box
  • Triple-carrier US LTE — AT&T · T-Mobile · Verizon failover
  • GSMA SGP.22 RSP — Remote SIM Provisioning, fully compliant
  • Multi-IMSI eUICC — multiple operator credentials per SIM, swappable OTA
  • 30+ years of Tier-1 interconnect — production-grade SS7 / Diameter / GRX infrastructure

Connectivity used to be the hard part.

Cellular IoT has historically meant negotiating with regional MNOs, managing per-country SIM SKUs, swapping SIMs in the field when contracts change, and burning engineering time on carrier-portal integrations. EdgeUplink + Nordic + iBasis collapses all of that into one SDK and one API.

// Before

Per-region SIM contracts.

Different SIMs for EU, US, APAC. Different paperwork per carrier. Different portals, different SLAs. SIM swaps required to ship into new markets.

// Before

Custom AT-command logic.

Per-modem firmware tuning for each module vendor. AT-command quirks. Power-management edge cases. Hand-rolled session management.

// After

One eSIM, every market.

iBasis-backed multi-IMSI eUICC re-provisions over the air per GSMA SGP.22. No SIM swap to enter a new region. No physical SIM logistics, ever.

// After

SDK-native.

Drop-in library for the Nordic SDK. Cellular session management, provisioning, and credential rotation are standard primitives — not custom firmware engineering.

Cellular IoT silicon supported.

Nordic is our launch silicon partner. EdgeUplink runs on any cellular IoT modem that follows GSMA RSP — meaning the rest of the major silicon vendors are technically supported today, with formal SDK integrations rolling out next.

Carrier infrastructure powering EdgeUplink.

iBasis is our backbone Tier-1 wholesale carrier — the connective fabric between EdgeUplink eSIMs and 700+ MNO partner networks worldwide. The three US carriers run as direct relationships for triple-carrier US LTE failover. Additional regional carriers are added on demand.

Silicon vendor? Module maker? Talk to us.

We integrate with cellular IoT modules whose customers ship globally and need real connectivity to ship at the same time. If your module is on our roadmap above — or should be — get in touch. The integration model is functional SDK support, not a press-release-only partnership.

Start with free samples.

The fastest way to evaluate EdgeUplink on your silicon is the Silicon Qualification Program — free MFF2 eSIMs, dedicated technical contact, and 3 months of free data across all 5 zones. No NDA at the sample stage. From there, formal SDK integration is on the table.
