Zone list

The Zone list replaces the separate roaming operator list documents.

The Zone list page provides a comprehensive view of available mobile technologies across the globe. It consists of two main components:

  • An interactive world map for visual exploration

  • A detailed Zone list table for in-depth analyses

Interactive Map

The Zone list map offers a global overview of operator availability by country. Key features include:

  1. Zone filtering: toggle between Premium and Economy zones

  2. Color Legend: easily identify zone types using the map legend

  3. Country details: click on a country to view available operators

  4. Dynamic updates: the map shows the filtered countries and their operators from the Zone list table, divided/shown by economy or premium maps

Zone list Table

The Zone list table provides detailed, country-specific information about available mobile technologies. Users can:

  • Apply Filters: Narrow down results by country, zone type, technology and more

  • Check Technology status:

    • Live: the technology is currently active and available

    • Ending: the technology is still available but is being phased out

This table is designed to support decision-making by offering granular insights into global technology availability. Click the information button (next to 'Zone list' at the top of the table) for tips on how to use the table and additional details about the displayed data.

Tips for use

  • Use the Zone toggle on the top to toggle the map view between Premium & Economy zones

  • Use Alt (Windows) or Command (Mac) + Scrollwheel to zoom in on the map, drag it to pan the map

  • Use the toggle above the legend to make the map reflect what you filtered in the table

  • Click a county to pin the data in the information field, click unpin to show data on hover again

  • Use the right mouse button on the table to export to your spreadsheet software

  • Hover on the link on the bottom of the table to see when the table was last updated

Zone information

In the list the 2 standard sets of zones are represented: the Premium zones (also known as full zones) and the Economy zones. The list contains as well a column with the name of the zone as a separate column for each zone.

Note: The Premium Zones are based on countries. All for KPN IoT available networks are accessible for usage within that zone. Each higher zone actually also contains the countries (and operators) in the earlier zone. If a Rate Plan doesn't contain one of the first zones, the countries will be included in the first next mentioned zone.

Note: The Economy Zones are based on a selected set of operators within a country. KPN IoT tries to make the best balance between coverage, quality and price. This means that not all for KPN IoT available networks are accessible for usage within that zone. Note as well that each higher zone doesn't contains the operators (and countries) in the earlier zone. This means that if a Rate Plan doesn't contain one of the first zones, the usage on those operators (in those countries) will NOT be included in the first next mentioned zone, but will be stated as usage in 'Other' (which is most of the times highly priced). Always make sure that when a Rate Plan containing these zones is connected to a subscription (SIM), that also the Communication Plan is related and handles the roaming restriction set that belongs to the economy zones.
