Global Satellite Communications

Iridium's fully-meshed network of 66 satellites enable worldwide continuity of service,
regardless of how remote a location might be.

 
  • Voice & data coverage anywhere on earth...for as little as $1 per day!
  • Solutions for the most remote sites on the planet, where no other communication is available.
  • Sutron is an authorized Iridium Value Added Partner/Dealer providing global Services & Applications.
 
Many Sutron Hydro-Met Stations and Applications employ Iridium Modems including Sutron's Tide Stations and monitoring stations on New Orleans Canals.

FEATURES

  • IRIDIUM delivers essential
    communications services to & from
    remote areas where no other form
    of communication is available.
  • The IRIDIUM constellation of 66
    Low-Earth Orbiting Satellites
    is the largest fully-meshed
    commercial satellite network in the
    world.
  • Low-Earth Orbit Satellites provide
    benefits other satellites cannot, i.e.,
    no significant transmission delays,
    lower transmit power for longer
    battery life, & total global coverage.

IRIDIUM ADVANTAGES

  • Data & voice messaging, alarms, paging, 2 way communications, & web solutions
  • No transmission delays & low power for longer battery life
  • Total Global Coverage: Zero interference & reliable everywhere. Cost-effective, secure & combines low-latency pole-to-pole coverage with SBD equipment.
  • Extremely Cold Environments: Sutron has provided IRIDIUM stations for Antarctica, Greenland & USACE’s Cold Regions Research/Engineering Lab.
  • Mobile Terminated Messaging (MTM) allows full control of a DCP. USACE’s CRREL & NOAA’s CO-OPS chose Sutron to develop MTM DCP commands. Iridium’s SBD capability permits low cost, event driven monitoring & control.
  • Easy Iridium Decoding: Systems can be configured with Iridium as a replacement for - or in addition to - a SatLink2 Transmitter. Iridium data can be provided in GOES format for easy decoding.

    SERVICES
  • IRIDIUM World Data Services
  • Land & Marine Mobile Services
  • Enhanced Mobile Satellite Services (EMSS) for US DoD: EMSS is a DoD enhancement providing low rate voice & data services & allowing for end-to-end encryption, interface to secure telephone equipment (STU/ STE), & protection of sensitive user information. Authorized user terminals (handsets) support secure communications by adding a removable NSA-approved Communications Security (COMSEC) sleeve connected directly to an authorized user terminal. DoD users include the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
  • Global LRIT* Services: Zero equipment interference & reliable everywhere, the Iridium LRIT application is dedicated, costeffective, low latency & secure. It combines high-quality, low-latency pole-to-pole coverage with low-cost equipment based on Short Burst Data (SBD) Transceiver. *Long Range Identification & Tracking
