Iridium is one of the world leaders in cutting-edge satellite communication technology. With global reach, Iridium allows individuals and companies to keep track of their assets anywhere on the planet in real-time. With the advent of the Iridium Edge® Pro, the company has truly excelled in providing a highly reliable, durable and affordable product for both GPS fleet management and accurate asset tracking.
The Iridium Edge® Pro is a standalone device for precise asset tracking which can be deployed immediately as it combines existing terrestrial solutions with high-tech IoT satellite communication to instantly enable the user to track any asset no matter where in the world it is. It functions with patented Short Burst Data technology which provides a real-time update on the location of any asset or vehicle backed up with the stable worldwide network of Iridium satellites which work on a low-latency.
Designed with customisation in mind, the new Iridium Edge® Pro is able to be programmed to your exact specifications, giving it an advantage over the previous Iridium Edge® model which requires you to integrate it with another IoT system.
