INMARSAT
BGAN M2M
BGAN-M2M offers a range of plans from low usage small scale deployments through bulk pooled data use for large-scale distributors. Standard IP connectivity makes BGAN-M2M “plug and play” for many conventional M2M and IoT applications and devices. Pooled data plans reduce risk of unexpected costs if an anomaly occurs on a remote machine.
Benefits of BGAN M2M Service
Easy Integration
Data speeds are 448kbps (send) / 464kbps (receive) which is more than enough for most IoT applications. Because it's IP-based, it's easy to integrate with your existing infrastructure.
Reliabile Service
Inmarsat delivers 99.9% network availability, which is as good as it gets. As BGAN M2M uses the L-band frequency, your devices will remain connected wherever they are, and whatever the weather.
Cost-Effective and Flexible
Ground Control was Inmarsat's first ELEVATE partner which means we have access to great airtime rates for BGAN M2M service. It's ideal for IP SCADA and remote fixed asset monitoring.
IsatData Pro
Featuring global connectivity and operating in near real-time, IDP enables and enhances a host of industrial IoT applications where event driven messaging is key. With a host of easily integratable hardware options, very low power usage, and flexible service plans IDP provides mission critical data connectivity in a compact, affordable package.
Benefits of IsatData Pro M2M Service
Reliability and scalability
Inmarsat helps customers achieve total control and visibility of their assets, operating in conditions where cellular and other satellite services are congested, degraded or not available, and providing 99.9 percent availability across its L-band satellite network.
Quick (ROI)
Machine-to-machine services derive value from a seamless global network, using a device that works worldwide without the complexity and costs of multi-party roaming.
Ease of use
The small, omnidirectional antenna makes installation easy and fast. One device works anywhere worldwide, without different frequency bands, SIM cards or roaming fees. Ultra-low power consumption enables battery applications that run for years maintenance-free.
Best in class performance
Data payloads up to 10 kilobytes and consistent throughput worldwide enables highly scalable and dependable applications to be developed, while keeping costs in check.
Coverage
Inmarsat’s services are available worldwide, so organisations can rely on complete connectivity for their assets, wherever they’re located, even if they are moving or transferred from one region to another.
