Federated authentication vs ABM for Apple Automated Device Enrollment
Federated authentication isn't strictly required if using a personal device but is typically used for accessing Microsoft 365 cloud services. With ABM you can also have "Managed Apple IDs" instead, but ABM isn't strictly required either if you want to just use Intune for BYOD.
The devices don't need a "plan" per-se, because they could just use Wi-Fi to enroll rather than 5G for connectivity.
This gentleman has some good articles on ABM and Intune integration, which you may want to review:

hiKurtBMayer ,
thanks for the reply and information.
we planning to use corporate iOS device only and not as shared devices, any concern?
is input personal apple ID allowed for supervised iOS/iPadOS devices deployed via ABM? We are not using Federation with AAD for Managed Apple ID, is there script or any tool to bulk Managed Apple ID.
Thanks in advance.
