SIM Card with static IP

Fixed IP SIM card

Having trouble accessing your device over the internet? Having a fixed IP SIM card solves this issue. The IP address never changes, making your device is remotely accessible over internet.

  • Static IPv4 address
  • All ports open & accessible
  • Manage firewall rules to improve security
 

What is a fixed IP SIM Card?

Connecting over the internet allows information to flow from A to B. To send information, the sender and the receiver need an (IP) address.

Since the beginning of the internet, the number of users has exploded. Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) has a limit of 3,706,452,992 public addresses. Since everything from phones, cars and smart devices needs one, they have become scarce.

Cellular networks use Network Address Translation to serve multiple devices with one IP address. Which is a good way to save IP addresses, but prevents direct access to an IoT device.

Simbase can help you fix this problem by offering a fixed IP SIM Card. Allocating a fixed IP address to your SIM Card allows you to start a data session from another IP address. Since it is fixed, you always know at what IP address to reach your device.
