Iridium Edge
The Irdiium Edge enables you to leverage your existing terrestrial-based solutions for fleet management, telematics, safety and other remote monitoring applications by expanding connectivity beyond cellular limits for 100% global IoT coverage.
The Irdiium Edge enables you to leverage your existing terrestrial-based solutions for fleet management, telematics, safety and other remote monitoring applications by expanding 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
Key Markets
- Fleet Managemt
- Remote Monitoring
- SCADA
- Asset Tracking
- Maritime
Fleet Management IOT
- Iridium EDGE devices can work with many existing cellular solutions, each with focus on different verticals and geographies
- Iridium is developing partnerships with a variety of cellular manufacturers to allow our partners to bring dual mode solutions to market
- Add-on hybrid dual mode solutions reduces inventory costs, allowing satellite to be at the installation phase
- Proper serial protocol can make a relable hybrid dual mode solution
Remote Monitoring IOT
- Iridium EDGE is an add-on to existing remote monitoring solutions to allow them to be deployed outside cellular coverage
- Easily mounted without a need for difficult, time consuming antenna pointing procedure
- The device can be optionally located inside a controller/junction box for more secure installations

SBD Mailbox Check
Mailbox check is charged when the device sends a 0 byte message to check if there is a message queued at the gateway. These messages are free as long as there is a message queued at the gateway. If the gateway does not have a message queued, there is a $0.05 charge for each check.
SBD Registration
Each device can register on the network once a month. Additional registration events are charged at $0.05 each.
