What Connect SIMs go into
Five common kinds of device, and the plan each one usually suits.
Devices
Devices and plans
SCADA backhaul
RTUs, PLCs, pump and bore controllers, switchroom gateways
Polled data and alarms from sites without a fixed line. Traffic is small and steady.
Usually Connect 100$8.00$8.80/mo ex GSTinc GSTMeters and sensors
Water and power meters, tank levels, soil probes, weather stations
A reading every few hours, measured in kilobytes. Ten MB a month covers most of these devices, and LTE-M helps battery powered sensors last for years.
Usually Connect 10$5.50$6.05/mo ex GSTinc GSTAsset tracking
Plant and vehicle trackers, trailers, gensets, portable compressors
Frequent position reports while an asset is moving, and very little while it is parked. Usage varies between units, and the shared pool evens it out.
Usually Connect 100$8.00$8.80/mo ex GSTinc GSTEdge gateways and remote HMI
Industrial routers, edge compute boxes, remote panel access
Heavier and less predictable traffic: configuration changes, log uploads and remote access to screens.
Usually Connect 1G$13.15$14.47/mo ex GSTinc GSTAlarms and unattended sites
Fire and security panels, lift phones, fridge and cool room alarms
Very little traffic until an alarm fires, which suits the smallest plan.

Mixed devices can share one pool.
Every SIM on a plan draws from the same allowance. A tracker having a busy fortnight is covered by tank sensors that only sent a few kilobytes.
