Myths about Satellite

Satellite equipment is bulky and requires a satellite dish.

With the smallest form factor of any commercial satellite transceiver available today, the Iridium 9603 is ideal for space-constrained uses, including fixed, mobile and battery powered applications.

Creating a satellite based IoT solution is complex.

A single-board core transceiver, the Iridium 9602 provides solution developers with the ability to integrate additional end-user functions such as GPS, microprocessor-based logic control.

Transmission via Satellite is expensive.

Iridium SBD offers lower initial hardware costs as well as lower cost-per-message compared to other satellite or terrestrial solutions.

Why use Satellite?

Coverage

The Iridium network is largest commercial satellite network in the world, and the only network that offers true global communications coverage over 100% of the planet.

Reliability

SBD trancievers are low power and can run on battery backup or solar. L-band Satellite Networks achieve 99.9% availability and is not impacted by weather or natural disasters.

Immediacy

With the Satellite network already in place. You can achieve instant global or regional coverage. Simplify your deployment accross multiple sites by using unified, omni-directional equipment.

Return on Investment

SBD satellite services have been supported for more then 10 years, and the Iridium Certus network is backward compatible with current SBD trancievers.
