Getting Oriented With The Ultimate Advice Concerning Thuraya Producing A New Phone - Thuraya XT
Iridium Communications Inc. released its newest technology "Iridium 9602" sat data transceiver last January at its yearly Partners Conference in Phoenix, Ariz.
The Iridium 9602 is a full duplex short-burst data (SBD) transceiver designed for embedded applications in the rapidly developing market for isolated asset tracing and monitoring solutions. The item, which is the culmination of a 2-year R&D program, has finished prototype testing, and Iridium expects to start industrial to deliver in June.
The new Iridium 9602 short-burst data transceiver will offer worldwide two-way data links for remote tracking, checking and messaging applications. The smaller size of the newest Iridium 9602 short-burst data transceiver will enable system integrators to embed the model in a vast array of mini, portable satellite tracing, monitoring and messaging solutions.
"The smaller, inexpensive Iridium 9602 will serve as the data communication engine for a whole range of handy tracking and monitoring gadgets, leveraging Iridium's worldwide reception and low-latency, two-way data links," said the executive vice president for marketing at Iridium, Don Thoma. "Our service partners are already testing prototypes in their Iridium 9602-based solutions for applications like tracing soldiers and army trucks in the field, telemetry from unattended sensors, fleet management, business logistics and supply-chain visibility, as well as own two-way navigation and mapping devices."
"The Iridium 9602 concentrates on highest overall value of price and functionality which offers global, real-time service joined with new lower pricing," according to Patrick Shay, VP, data services, Iridium. "The Iridium 9602 is the greatest value in the industry."
A one-of-a-kind benefit of the Iridium 9602 is its in built GPS input/output ports which will permit system integrators to interface having an external GPS receiver, with the use of a single dual-mode L-Band antenna for GPS and Iridium SBD, to save the cost of an antenna in their applications.
