Iridium Edge Solar™
The new Iridium Edge Solar is designed to be a simple, low-cost, solar-based tracking device. Something you can attach to a boat, vehicle or other asset and then forget. Regular GPS tracking reports would then be sent from the unit, with the internal battery being recharged by the in-built solar panel.
The Iridium Edge® Solar is a standalone and programmable, solar-powered Short Burst Data (SBD®) device that offers real-time GPS tracking and local wireless sensor and communication capabilities over Bluetooth. The product’s self charging, low maintenance, long field life and over-the-air configuration allow Iridium Value-Added Resellers to create distinct tracking applications that can also be implemented to create even more complex solutions. The Iridium Edge Solar is for customers who need a very simple tracking device that they can set-and-forget. Therefore if you need a simple autonomous tracker, with global coverage, transmitting every few hours, this could be exactly what you need.
Features of the Iridium Edge Solar include:
• Autonomous GPS tracking
• Bluetooth capability for wireless sensor integration and local device connectivity
• Over-the-Air Configuration Changes
• Interval and Scheduled Reporting Modes
• Start/Stop Reporting/In Motion Reporting
• Fully Encapsulated, No External Connectors, Water Ingress Protected
• Accelerometer and Magnetometer
• LED Status Indicator
Power Management details:
• Photovoltaic Solar Cells, Rechargeable and Primary Batteries
• Smart Power Management System
• Up to 3-year Shelf Life
• Up to 10-Year Operational Service Life
• Back-up battery capacity provides 2x per day reporting for up to 5 years with no solar availability.
