Service Endpoints

Soracom Air for Cellular

When connecting to a cellular network using a Soracom IoT SIM card, your device should be configured with the following APN settings:

Item Global Japan
Plans plan01s plan01s - LDV plan-NA1 plan-US planX3 planX3-EU
planP1 planX1 planX2 planX3 plan-US-max plan-US-NA
plan-D plan-K plan-K2 plan-KM1 plan-DU
APN soracom.io soracom.io du.soracom.io
Username sora sora sora
Password sora sora sora
PDP Type IP IP IP
Authentication Type CHAP or PAP CHAP or PAP CHAP or PAP

4G/LTE and newer devices are often able to automatically retrieve the soracom.io APN setting directly from the network. However, for 2G and 3G connections, the APN must be configured on the device in advance. In general, you should configure the APN setting whenever possible.

When a device uses a Soracom SIM to connect to a cellular network, Soracom will authenticate the device using credentials that are stored inside the SIM. In turn, the Username and Password settings can be treated as optional and omitted. However, these settings are provided in order to support devices that do not allow these settings to be omitted.


Ping Response Service

You can use the Ping Response Service to confirm that a device can reach the Soracom network. To do so, ping the endpoint:
