Another big player in the world of Satellite IoT is Inmarsat. Though its coverage isn’t 100% worldwide like Iridium, it comes very close. If you don’t require remote connections in the polar regions, Inmarsat is a solid choice for your connectivity needs.
Inmarsat makes M2M possible with its Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN) terminals. The combined service and advanced devices allow for long-term machine-to-machine management of fixed and mobile assets. Industries requiring off the grid, unmanned location communication and management need not look any further than BGAN M2M.
What you get with Inmarsat BGAN M2M:
- Nearly global coverage
- Low latency data transmission
- Easy integration into current systems
- Robust certified terminals
- Affordability
- Enhanced support and remote upgrading
Utizling IoT via Inmarsat allows for a range of applications such as:
- Asset tracking
- Fixed monitoring – remote surveillance, telemetry, and tracking
- Friendly force tracking
- Mobile monitoring – remote surveillance, telemetry, and tracking
- Secure and encrypted ATM/PoS solution
- Smart metering
- Weather and environmental monitoring
Relying on M2M communication is vital in any successful operation, but you also need to be confident in its reliability to get the job done. You can be confident that it’s all under control when you use Inmarsat’s network with the complementary BGAN M2M terminals.
Hughes 9502 BGAN M2M
There are two options for the 9502 BGAN M2M. Both offer the same optimal features for offering affordable, global, end-to-end IP data connectivity. The External Antenna option utilizes an outdoor and indoor unit, whereas the integrated terminal utilizes a one-piece design with the highest industry rating for ingress protection for the harshest of environments.
Otherwise, users will receive the same quality and funcitionality that they require with one of these “always-on, low-power, high-speed terminals for seamless M2M connectivity. Features include:
- Utilizes BGAN or M2M SIM cards
- Integrated IP Watchdog to ensure “always-on” network connectivity
- Auto-on/auto-context activation automatically restores power
- Remote control via SMS
- Ultra-low power consumption
- Security enhancements with extended layers of embedded security options
- Basic installation
- Built-in GPS receive
- Ultra-low power consumption
- Security enhancements with extended layers of embedded security options
- Basic installation
- Built-in GPS receiver
9502 External Antenna Terminal
Even power-challenged locations can rely on this seamless communication because of 9502’s extremely low power consumption. This is always-on, low-power (yet high-speed) terminal is one of the most affordable ways to continuously monitor and control unmanned equipment that can’t be operated on a typical terrestrial network.
This terminal is Ideal for any businesses requiring remote management of its fixed and mobile assets. Industries requiring processes such as environmental monitoring, pipeline monitoring, compressor monitoring, well site automation, video surveillance, and out-of-band management to primary site communications will find it especially useful in maintaining a successfully running business operation.
The outdoor unit can be pole mounted and the indoor unit is housed inside a building or remote terminal unit.
9502 Integrated Antenna Terminal
This compact antenna is the alternative to the external antenna option.
With the 9502 modem integrated with the compact antenna, this is the best bet for outdoor installation to ensure your connection stays constant even during harsh weather conditions. The single-piece, integrated terminal provides the reliable IP connectivity required for all M2M application requirements. With the included 10 meters of RF cabling, this antenna can be positioned away from the transceiver in order to optimize the connection (while sill enabling the SIM card to be housed inside an enclosure for added security).
