Activating Your Soracom IoT SIM

Cellular Data for Sequans LTE Cat 1bis EVK

Evaluation kit for LTE Cat 1bis development based on Sequans GC02S1 modules. Ships with a Soracom Global IoT SIM for immediate activation and production-architecture validation.

Getting Connected

And discover the built-in platform services built for IoT solutions

Activation Workflow

Bring the EVK online using Soracom’s standard activation model. The bundled SIM follows the same account-based workflow used in production deployments, allowing you to validate provisioning, authentication, and connectivity patterns under real LTE network conditions.


Account & SIM Registration

1. Create a Soracom account.

2. Register SIM via OPID-based activation.

3. Activate global cellular coverage plan.


Device Configuration

4. Insert SIM into EVK.

5. Configure APN settings.

6. Begin LTE Cat 1bis transmission.

Native Platform Services

Connectivity is only the transport layer. Soracom’s platform services provide the operational control, automation, and network routing flexibility required to simulate production-grade device behavior during development and testing.

Supported Development Scenarios

Use the EVK and bundled SIM to validate both device-level and system-level behaviors. From RF attachment characteristics to cloud ingestion workflows, this kit supports realistic end-to-end experimentation before scaling hardware deployments.


Network & RF Validation
  • Monitor carrier attachment behavior
  • Signal quality and fallback testing
  • Power consumption profiling

Cloud Integration Testing

Security Model

Cellular networks provide inherent device authentication and encrypted air-interface transport. Soracom extends that foundation with policy controls and private routing options that mirror secure production architectures.


Device & SIM Controls

Backend Protection

Engineering Tooling

Monitor, automate, and troubleshoot connectivity using console-level visibility and API access. These tools allow you to model fleet-scale behavior and validate operational workflows while still in the lab.


Development & Operational Tools
  • Self-service console + full API access
  • Session logs and usage analytics
  • Fleet simulation workflows
  • Policy-based containment during testing
