# SIMs for construction sites

> A fixed line takes weeks to arrive and the site may only last months. ThingSIM connects cabins, cameras, gates and plant from the first day, and moves on with them to the next job.

## What the kit needs

### Online on day one

A router with a SIM in the cabin connects the site office as soon as it’s powered. No line order, no install date.

### Everything on site

Cameras, access control and plant telematics each take a SIM, or share the cabin router’s connection.

### Moves with the job

When the site closes the kit and its SIMs move on. Pause SIMs between jobs from the portal.

## How it connects

Site router → mobile data → ThingSIM core (Private APN) → Internet or VPN → Head office and cloud (Email, drawings, cameras).

## Recommended setup

**5 GB, UK 4-network, one SIM per cabin router.** Busy site offices can use more than any plan here; talk to us about a site with several users.

- 5 GB, UK 4-network: £8.85 a month per active SIM, ex VAT
- Optional: Static public IP, £8 a month per SIM
