Barcelona: Etisalat Data Clearing House (EDCH), a subsidiary of Etisalat Services Holding, showcased its eSIM profile provisioning services and other SIM card solutions at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

SIM cards are a critical element in the value chain of mobile network operators (MNOs), and their security is non-negotiable. The eSIM is an important evolution in network access technology, allowing for increased mobility and simplified access to mobile networks.

Nasser Salim, General Manager, EDCH, said: “Having been a trusted business partner for dozens of mobile network operators for over two decades, we at EDCH are excited to share with Mobile World Congress visitors how we are reshaping the SIM business by showcasing the latest trends in terms of eSIM provisioning as well as our customised SIM card solutions. It cannot be stressed enough that reliable, high quality SIM cards help to minimise both the revenue loss and subscriber dissatisfaction caused by difficulties in connecting to the mobile network. And for machine-to-machine (M2M) applications, the eSIM is already bringing substantial benefits to operators and business customers.”

Designed as per GSM standards, EDCH’s innovative suite of products enables mobile operators and enterprises to offer seamless customer experience to their end users. By investing in SIM cards with appropriate memory capacities, operators can benefit from installing applications on SIM cards using Over-the-Air (OTA) technology. Some of the most popular apps include the SIM application toolkit and interactive messaging, while OTA steering of roaming, or preferred roaming, is also possible.

From its SAS-certified factory in the UAE, EDCH offers SIM cards to suit any operators’ requirements, with short delivery times within the Middle East and Africa region. Available options include memory capacities from 32KB to 1MB; support for both Java and native applications; SIM, USIM, and ISIM cards for access to networks from 2G to 5G, standard, micro, and nano SIM card plug sizes; and M2M SIMs.

Established in 1994, EDCH is a trusted Value-Added Services (VAS) solutions provider of telecom operators and enterprises globally. It is the only data clearing house in the Middle East with clients spanning across the globe, empowering mobile operators and enterprises to enhance their revenues while reducing operational cost.
