The future of Industry 4.0 is dependent on reliable, ubiquitous connectivity. Read about the steps being taken to integrate satellite technology into 5G architecture to better support an increasingly connected world.

Satellite connectivity ensures reliable remote data monitoring from individual turbines to entire wind farms allowing optimization and ongoing performance assurance of wind energy output.

91% of businesses surveyed by Inmarsat believe satellite connectivity is key to improving the effectiveness of IoT solutions. But many still consider satellite connectivity expensive. Our response? It’s far more cost-effective than you might think.

Iridium Certus is available in three speed classes: Certus 100, which is intended for IoT applications; Certus 200, which is good for basic internet and voice, and Certus 700, which delivers the fastest L-band internet broadband speeds currently available, up to 704 Kbps.

Our guide to the applications and circumstances in which Inmarsat's BGAN M2M satellite IoT solution is the perfect choice, covering location, latency, cost and data speeds.

While the demand for renewable energy is growing rapidly, there are a number of challenges faced by the industry, from connectivity to security. Satellite IoT communications and monitoring can solve these challenges. And it's genuinely not as expensive as you might think...

Our Chief Architect, Dan Ambrose, explains how our new IoT Gateway makes utilising Iridium Messaging Transport (IMT) easy, from managing the connection to message queuing, and retries.

IMT offers arguably the best of both worlds - a message-based service utilising Iridium Certus 100 to send/receive messages up to 100,000 bytes.

Taking full advantage of IMT, the latest Iridium network service evolution, Ground Control is proud to announce the development of a new Satellite IoT delivery network.
