Iridium EDGE Modem

Enable your customers to leverage their existing terrestrial-based solutions for fleet management, telematics, safety and other remote monitoring applications through Iridium Edge™, a ready-to-go, reliable satellite communications device that expands connectivity beyond cellular limits for 100% global IoT coverage.

Rapidly Deployed IoT Solution
Fast time-to-market is a critical need in today’s evolving asset tracking and fleet management environment. Iridium Edge features an all-in-one Short Burst Data(SBD) modem and antenna, with power supply. The plug-and-play satellite IoT device can be easily paired with existing satellite and cellular solutions, without complicated integration or development requirements.

Benefits Of The Iridium LEO Satellite Network For IoT/M2M
Iridium Edge inherits the many benefits of the Iridium network, including:

• 100 percent truly global coverage from pole-to-pole
• Provides a stronger, more robust satellite signal compared to GEO constellations
• Shorter transmission path of LEO network results in lower latency and shorter registration time
• Greater flexibility in installation
• Improved line of sight over GEO systems in compromised locations or behind large obstructions
• Overlapping satellite coverage and crosslinks provide redundancy and increased reliability
