Fixed IP sims have been available on a wholesale model through Jola for many years. They are typically used for CCTV cameras, alarm systems, sensors, point-of-sale systems, mobile broadband and fixed line broadband back-up, which all need stable fixed IP addresses.
Many of these applications typically use large amounts of data, which has driven up the cost of solutions for end users in locations where EE is the preferred network.
But Jola has solved that problem with the addition of its new SIMs.
"Our solution is unique to us as the fixed IP address applies to the SIM card and not the router," said Cherie Howlett, CMO, Jola. "This means that any device with a SIM slot can now have a fixed public IP address.
"We offer unlimited data so users do not have to worry about data overage charges and MSPs can monitor data usage in Mobile Manager. Our competitive pricing allows MSPs to save end users money, give them more control over their solution, and make good recurring margins. Our fixed IP SIMs transit the Cloudflare international IP network, giving partners peace of mind with full DDoS protection."
