Iridium 9602N SBD Transceiver
Description Iridium 9602N SBD Transceiver 3-5 Day Lead Time The Iridium 9602N SBD transceiver module combines the Iridium satellite constellation's global coverage with the Iridium Short Burst Data Service (SBD) low latency to deliver extremely dependable satellite communications around the world. The Iridium 9602N Tracking Transceiver is intended to be used in conjunction with additional host system hardware and software to create a complete solution tailored to a certain application or vertical market. It's smaller, lighter, and less expensive than its predecessor, making it perfect for machine-to-machine (M2M) applications including autonomous vehicle localization, asset monitoring, marine, and personal tracking — anywhere. This tracking transceiver was built specifically for Iridium's Short Burst Data service, which provides crucial data transfers on a worldwide scale. Iridium 9602N Transceiver Features The 9602N SBD transceiver is designed to incorporate into an integrated satellite communication solution for a specific application or vertical market. Key Benefits and Features Compact form factor Pole-to-pole global coverage Short Burst Data capable RS232 interface GPS module antenna feed for shared antenna applications Simple AT command interface Automatic message queue notification Single header connector for: Power On/off control logical level asynchronous Uart Control Network availability XXMC connector for small omni-directional L-Band antennas Fully certified 12 month warranty How The 9602N SBD Transceiver Works The Iridium 9602N is a single board unit designed as a ‘black box’ transceiver module with all device interfaces controlled by a single multi-pin interface connector in addition to the antenna connector. As the product only provides the core transceiver, all other end-user field application functions such as GPS, microprocessor based logic control, digital and analog inputs, digital and analog outputs, power supply, and antenna must be provided by the solution developer. The device interface across the user connector consists of a serial-data interface, DC power input, network available output, and a power on/off control line. The Iridium 9602N does not incorporate nor require a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card to be inserted into the transceiver. The Iridium 9602N is intended to be used as a transceiver module fitted within another host system.
