Iridium SBD tracking
The Short-Burst Data (SBD)
Tracking Modem
The Short-Burst Data (SBD) Tracking Modem is a
pocket-size satellite tracker designed to operate with the Iridium network in
SBD-only data mode. It is a stand-alone unit relying on an internal
micro-controller/GPS receiver for operation. This package includes the transceiver, GPS Iridium antenna, battery, and charger. The modem can send either a standard or a 256-bit AES encrypted GPS report at a pre-programmed interval
ranging from once every four seconds to once every forty-five days. The interval
can be changed remotely while the unit is in the field. There is an available
serial port that can be used to communicate with an external device such as a
sensor. The modem has a switch to alert the recipient of an emergency situation
as well as to indicate proper operation of the unit. It has four LEDs providing
the status of power input, Iridium connection, GPS fix and SBD transmission.
This basic package includes the 9601-DGS-LP transceiver, GPS Iridium antenna, battery and charger.
The modem has been certified to MIL-STD-810F standards.
