Axentia, a Swedish provider of battery and solar-powered display systems for public transport, has become the first user to receive and commercially deploy a standardised SGP.32 offering from Telenor IoT.

This includes both SIM cards and remote SIM provisioning capabilities, marking a milestone in future IoT connectivity.

Axentia delivers IoT-enabled displays that provide real-time passenger information in public transport environments. Deployed across multiple markets and using a design with no external cabling, these displays require reliable, scalable and flexible cellular connectivity to ensure long device lifetimes and cost-efficient operations.

To meet growing user demands and ensure its devices stay connected long-term, Axentia has adopted the SGP.32 industry standard for SIM management. This allows it to manage and update SIM cards remotely, which is essential for devices that remain in the field for many years.

By following this standard approach, Axentia avoids being tied to a single provider, giving it the freedom to switch or adapt its connectivity at any point during a product’s lifespan. Through its partnership with Telenor IoT, Axentia combines this flexibility with a reliable network, ensuring its devices stay online and operate smoothly across different global markets.

“Axentia operates in a market where flexible and modern connectivity is no longer optional,” said Frithjof Qvigstad, CTO at Axentia. “By being an early adopter of SGP.32, Axentia is positioning itself to meet future customer demands with a standardised, scalable solution.”

Telenor IoT (iot.telenor.com) and Axentia have worked together since 2021, building a long-term partnership centred on innovation, sustainability and future-ready connectivity. The delivery of SGP.32 SIM cards represents the next step in this collaboration.

Axentia (www.axentia.se) is a Swedish company and supplier of end-to-end real-time information for public transport, uniting a cloud-native transit intelligence platform with low-power, battery-powered bus stop displays.
