Product Description
IR-00-SDB2M1001 Iridium 9602 SBD Transceiver Module
The 9602 SBD Transceiver combines the global coverage of the Iridium satellite constellation with the low latency of the Iridium Short Burst Data Service (SBD) in a small, low-cost transceiver design.
How It Works
The Iridium 9602 is a single-board core transceiver provided as a ‘black box,’ with all device interfaces provided by a single multi-pin interface connector and antenna connectors.
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 input/output, power supply and antenna must be provided by the solution developer.
Leverages Iridium SBD Service
The Iridium 9602 is designed to exclusively support Iridium’s Short Burst Data Service.
Authorized Iridium partners can create high value vertical market solutions using the combination of the Iridium 9602 and SBD Service’s that include: low latency service, small transceiver, small antenna, and global coverage.
Iridium SBD Service provides:
• Mobile Originated messages: up to 340 bytes(MO, for those sent from the mobile handset)
• Mobile Terminated messages: up to 270 bytes(MT, for messages sent to a mobile handset)
• Low, uniform global latency: less than 1 minute
