A user SIM card must be installed - It can be inserted into the **ATA CONNECT+** module or a compatible ATA taximeter - The connection must be **4G (or higher)** 👉 This connection enables access to Cloud services.   ☁️ **Why is an internet connection necessary?** The SIM card allows: - Uploading videos to myCloudTaxi servers - Remote viewing access - Data synchronization - Alerts and notifications 👉 Without a connection, the system operates in local mode only.   📊 **Recommended data plan** For optimal use, it is recommended to have: - A data plan with sufficient capacity - Approximately **20 GB per month minimum** for video usage 👉 The exact amount depends on usage intensity.   💡 **Cost-effective option: secondary SIM (multi-SIM)** Many operators offer: - A secondary SIM linked to your main plan - Usually at a low cost - A solution well suited for onboard equipment 👉 This option is often recommended for taxi drivers.   ⭐ **Summary** ✔ SIM card required for connected features ✔ 4G or higher connection recommended ✔ Installed in onboard equipment (ATA CONNECT+ or equivalent) ✔ Around 20 GB of data recommended ✔ Option to use a secondary SIM 👉 A reliable mobile connection ensures optimal system performance. -
