When starting to evaluate Infineons OPTIGA™ Connect IoT solution as a proposal you might want to follow these steps:
- Download the DataSheet
 - Order the OPTIGA™ Connect IoT SAMPLE KIT
 - In case you don't have a dedicated 
Deviceyet, get our OPTIGA™ Connect IoT Evaluation Board - Buy a miniPCIe modem of your choice and a LTE antenna. Ensure that the modem is capable to handle eUICCs!
 - If you don't want to solder the VQFN8 package or work with Smart Card readers consider getting our Card Adapter VQFN8 version
 - In case you need adapter that fit in SIM sockets in combination with the Card Adapter VQFN8 we offer a SIM Cable Adapter Kit
 - Download the Quickstarter Guide
 
The kit comes with 5 pcs of OPTIGA™ Connect IoT with predefined dataplan working out of the box for instant trials.
- 5 pcs VQFN-8/MFF2
 - 70 MB of connectivity (*)
 - 6 month validity from first network connect on
 - 150 countries worldwide coverage (Americas, APAC and EMEA)
 
(*) For all eSIMs included in the Kit, a combined total of 70 MB is available.
Enables customer to verify/operate OPTIGA™ Connect IoT in combination with a cellular modem available as mini PCIe form factor
- LTE modem shield only
 - Incl. OPTIGA™ Connect IoT VQFN-8 soldered to the board
 - 3FF/Micro-SIM card holder
 - Switch between SIM/eSIM
 - Connects to host via 40-pin Raspberry Pi header or Micro-USB
 - Optional: Footprint to add OPTIGA™ Trust X/M
 
In this configuration the card adapter is assembled with a
- VQFN-8 Zero Force Insertion (ZIF) test socket
 - Jumper and test pins
 
Add-on for Card Adapter V3.x 
Enables a connection from an OPTIGA™ Connect IoT inserted in the ZIF-socket to a 2FF, 3FF or 4FF SIM card holder
The kit includes 5 variants of SIM adapters to be attached to Card Adapter V3.x via its female 8-pin header
You get:
- Mini-SIM (2FF, 0 deg)
 - Mini-SIM (2FF, 90 deg)
 - Micro-SIM (3FF, 0 deg)
 - Micro-SIM (3FF, 180 deg)
 - Nano-SIM (4FF, 0 deg)
 
Note: The RJ45 and SMB coax cable are not relevant for eSIM
