 **Subscriber Identity Module (SIM)** or **Subscriber Identification Module (SIM)**, widely known as a SIM card, is an [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​s:​smart_card|integrated circuit]] that is intended to securely store the international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) number and its related [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​k:​key|key]],​ which are used to identify and authenticate [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​s:​subscriber|subscribers]] on mobile telephony devices (such as mobile phones and computers). It is also possible to store contact information on many SIM cards. SIM cards are always used on GSM phones; for CDMA phones, they are needed only for LTE-capable handsets. SIM cards can also be used in satellite phones, smart watches, computers, or cameras. ​ **Subscriber Identity Module (SIM)** or **Subscriber Identification Module (SIM)**, widely known as a SIM card, is an [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​s:​smart_card|integrated circuit]] that is intended to securely store the international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI) number and its related [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​k:​key|key]],​ which are used to identify and authenticate [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​s:​subscriber|subscribers]] on mobile telephony devices (such as mobile phones and computers).
