The Iridium Edge® allows you to send and receive short messages from anywhere on Earth, so long as you have a clear view of the sky. It works far beyond the reach of Wi-Fi and GSM networks.

Maybe you want to transmit weather information from mid-ocean? Or use it to get telemetry back from an oil well? Perhaps you need to communicate in an emergency, when other networks might not be available? Whatever you need it for, we can help.

Combined with our flexible data packages and RockBLOCK IoT platform, you can connect your remote systems seamlessly.
