    100% Visibility

    Every device's status and usage monitored from one unified dashboard.

Overview

What is multi-network IoT connectivity?

Every tracker, dashcam and sensor in a fleet depends on a mobile connection. When a vehicle crosses a border or drives into an area with weak coverage, a single-network SIM can drop offline — and with it, your visibility.

TEQ District IoT Connectivity uses multi-network SIMs that connect devices to the strongest available network automatically. If one network drops, devices fail over to another, and when vehicles cross borders they switch networks without manual intervention. Access to 500+ network operators across 40+ countries keeps devices online across Africa with one SIM.

All SIMs are managed from one centralised platform: provision new SIMs, monitor status, track data usage and costs, and receive real-time alerts. High-data plans support video telematics and other data-intensive applications, with pay-as-you-use pricing and flexible data tiers. For sensitive operations, data can travel over private VPN tunnels with encrypted communications, away from the public internet.

IoT Connectivity is the foundation that keeps every other TEQ District service — fleet telematics, AI video, fuel management and cargo tracking — working reliably in the field.

How it works

How IoT Connectivity works

  1. 01

    Choose your plan

    Select data tiers to match each device — from low-data trackers to high-data dashcams.

  2. 02

    Provision SIMs

    SIMs are provisioned centrally and inserted into your trackers, cameras and sensors.

  3. 03

    Connect automatically

    Devices join the strongest available network and fail over automatically if one drops.

  4. 04

    Monitor and manage

    Track status, data usage and cost for every SIM from one dashboard, with real-time alerts.

FAQ

IoT Connectivity questions

What happens when a network goes down?

Devices automatically switch to another available network, typically in under a minute, so trackers and cameras stay online without manual intervention.

Does one SIM work across different countries?

Yes. The multi-network SIM gives access to 500+ network operators across 40+ countries, switching networks automatically at borders.

Can I see data usage for every device?

Yes. The centralised SIM platform shows status, usage analytics, real-time alerts and cost tracking for every SIM in your fleet.

Is the connectivity suitable for dashcam video?

Yes. High-data SIM plans are purpose-built for video telematics and other data-intensive applications, with flexible data tiers.

How is data kept secure?

Critical data can be routed over private VPN tunnels with encrypted communications, keeping sensitive information away from the public internet.
