Why connected PCs? How SHI makes device activations easy

Picture this: your employees are on the road, in the field, or working from a client site. They need to stay productive, but the Wi-Fi is spotty — or worse, unsecured. Suddenly, simple tasks take longer, collaboration stalls, and security risks creep in. It’s a frustrating reality for today’s mobile workforce.

Connected PCs change the game. With built-in 4G/LTE and 5G connectivity, these devices deliver secure, reliable access anywhere — no hotspots, no scrambling for public Wi-Fi. They’re ready to go right out of the box. But here’s the catch: activating and configuring these devices at scale can be a headache for IT teams already juggling critical priorities.

That’s where SHI comes in. We make connected PC deployments simple, predictable, and stress-free. Whether you’re rolling out a handful of laptops or thousands across multiple locations, our experts handle everything — from SIM provisioning to network testing — so your devices arrive fully activated and ready for action.
