Aeris, the secure connectivity platform for Physical AI and intelligent IoT devices, has partnered with Telna. Telna provides managed global network infrastructure for cellular connectivity. The two companies announced the strategic partnership today. Their goal is to end the IoT connectivity fragmentation that slows multinational deployments, starting with Brazil.
The partnership combines the Aeris IoT Accelerator (IoTA) platform and the Aeris IoT Watchtower® security suite with Telna’s cloud-native core network. As a result, enterprises, OEMs, and managed service providers (MSPs) gain a simpler way to scale, secure, and manage IoT programs across borders. Telna also joins a growing community of Tier-1 operators on IoT Accelerator.
“Multinational enterprises shouldn’t have to rebuild their IoT program every time they enter a new country,” said Mark Cratsenberg, Chief Commercial Officer, Aeris. “Welcoming Telna to the IoT Accelerator community gives our customers compliant, low-latency access to Brazil through the same platform and security they already use worldwide. It’s another step toward truly borderless connectivity for Physical AI and intelligent, mission-critical IoT.”
Unlocking Brazil’s High-Growth IoT Verticals
Brazil restricts IoT Connectivity Fragmentation permanent roaming. Consequently, global enterprises have long had to negotiate separate local agreements or run parallel connectivity stacks. Telna now removes that barrier with local IMSI profiles in Brazil. In addition, the company holds 800+ network agreements across 200+ countries and territories.
Aeris customers can therefore reach Brazil’s fast-growing agribusiness, industrial IoT, healthcare, and automotive markets. They also use compliant local connectivity. Moreover, they manage it alongside the rest of their global fleet.
Zero-Touch eSIM and Intelligent Local Breakout
The joint solution delivers zero-touch eSIM provisioning. Devices therefore connect in the market without SIM swaps or country-by-country onboarding. Meanwhile, Telna’s geo-redundant Points of Presence work with Aeris’ global Tier-1 operator agreements. Together, they enable intelligent local breakout that keeps mission-critical traffic close to the device.
This approach sharply lowers latency for autonomous systems, connected vehicles, and edge AI. Furthermore, IoT Connectivity Fragmentation Accelerator is the only IoT platform with security monitoring and protection fully integrated into the cellular network. Every device therefore receives zero-trust protection from day one.
“Telna built a cloud-native core so connectivity could move at the speed of our partners’ businesses, and local IMSIs are the foundation of making that connectivity compliant for the long term,” said Gregory Gundelfinger, Founder and CEO, Telna. “Together with Aeris, we give enterprises and OEMs a single, secure path to scale in one of the world’s most dynamic IoT markets. Brazil is where we start, but it is not where we stop. Telna will keep bringing new local profiles onto the IoT connectivity Accelerator so their customers can expand into restricted markets as fast as their business demands and operate there for the full life of the device.”
One Interface, Lower Total Cost of Ownership
The partnership consolidates connectivity, security, and management into a single interface on IoT Accelerator. As a result, customers can enter new markets without new carrier contracts or device redesigns. Finally, the model counters the cost inflation in international markets. That inflation erodes competitiveness and total cost of ownership.
