30、ry low latency,roaming connections now offer stable and dependable perform-ance for most use cases.Again,due to the capability of having multi-network access roaming provides improved redundancy,i.e.if one network fails devices can be switched to another network in order to maintain connectivity.In

31、practice this will provide a very high level of availability for your connected IoT devices.The table below shows some real-world examples of how this has worked for our customers.During the period July-August 2024 we experienced a total of eight con-nectivity incidents with our roaming partners wor

33、s multi-network capability is essential for the reliability and redundancy of IoT devices,ensuring they remain connected even when the primary network is unavailable.In addition to the advantage of being able to provide multi-network connectivity in almost all markets,roaming also makes it easier to

34、 implement centralized network monitoring and thereby quicker problem identification and implementation of corrective measures if needed.Start timeStop timeCountryOperator 1Operator 2Operator 3Operator 4Aug 29,16:40 UTCAug 30,11:30 UTCSouth Africa2G downOKOKN/AAug 29,00:00 UTCAug 29,01:40 UTCUK2G do

37、 manage is misleading.In reality,local access often has more requirements and complexities compared to roaming.Roaming typically involves a single integration,simplifying technical and operational management.This streamlined approach makes roaming a more straightforward and efficient option for ente

40、national regulator,such as e.g.in China,Egypt,Singapore and the UAE.Thirdly,in some countries(like Australia,Canada and USA),some operators may apply commercial restrictions on permanent roaming under certain circumstances.Overall,roaming may however very well be used as a connectivity solution for

41、PoT devices permanently located outside of the home operators licensed area.(“IoT Guide:Global IoT Regulations”(2024)by GSMA provides e.g.more information on this subject).EuropePermanent roaming restrictions are not typically enforced,althrough EU regulations do permit it in certain circumstances.M

42、iddle East&North AfricaIn Saudi Arabia and UAE there is no explicit ban,but services must be hosted locally and/or provided by a licensed local operator,effectively prohibiting permanent roaming.Oman prohibits roaming beyond 90 day,unless the provider can prove an exeption.In Egypt,permanent roaming

43、 agreements must be approved by the telecom regulator.OthesMany other countries,beyond those show on this map,also have rules about permanent roaming.Sometimes these are explicit bans.In other cases de facto bans based on requirements for local licensing,data sovereignty or other similar issue.North
